Overview

The WalkTalkShow.co.uk is a fascinating trip through the entire history of Stratford, from its 7th Century beginnings to its 21st Century arcade. Our guides will tell you all about the town, William Shakespeare and the buildings and events that punctuate a history that spans 14 centuries. The tour has 15 stops - each one used to illustrate key historical details; both about the Bard and his hometown. Just how significant were the Guild of the Holy Cross [founded 1269] to local history - and who was the enigmatic Hugh Clopton? See Harvard House (1596), the family home of the man who went on to start Americas most famous University. Shakespeare frequented all five of the taverns from his day that survive to this - and you still can; you will see them all. You will also learn a lot about the greatest writer ever as well as the iconoclastic forces of English history that shaped the man, his home town, the British Isles - and then the wider world.
