The ancient city of Salisbury and its cathedral date from the 13th century.
The city is a happy mix of brick, stone and timber framed buildings dating
from medieval and Victorians times.
The River Avon runs very close to the city. Walking along the river banks you will enjoy superb views of the Salisbury cathedral that is the big tourist attraction of the city.
Build between 1220 and 1260, it is the finest example of early English architecture,
one of the greatest medieval buildings in the country and the only English cathedral built in one style.
The 404 foot spire is the highest in Great Britain.
