Part of the Warwick Words Festival
Location - Market Hall Museum

Join Sue Rigby to discover the story of the 1694 Great Fire of Warwick.
Using information drawn from the archives of The Fire Court, we will uncover the stories of six people who were in Warwick on that fateful day. There will also be the opportunity to see a virtual version of the old town and the new augmented-reality model of Warwick, showing the spread of the fire.
This talk will start at Market Hall Museum before moving into the streets of the town to follow the route of the fire, ending back at the Museum. The walk will last about an hour, at a gentle pace.
Please note that once the walk has started, there will be no opportunity to sit down en route
Tickets are £15.
Spaces are limited, please book tickets via the Warwick Words website.
