Interested in Burton history? You will be. Join us tomorrow for a two and a half hour history walk through the historical centre of the town… £15 buys you a new perspective on Burton and a souvenir guide book full of great photos and maps.

It's the last weekend of Burton Barrel Roll and we're very proud to have helped our friends there out with history knowledge for their app. We also sponsored the wonderful barrel made by Yvie’s Imaginarium, which we love and are very proud of. If you've not found all 14 yet, I'd suggest popping over to the Market and starting there!

How old is Burton? Who burnt down the High Street? When was Burton bombed? Why does it say ‘No Domini’ on the side of Primark? Where was the ice factory? Who said Stapenhill had medieval zombies?

Just some of the questions we will answer on September’s BURTON HISTORY TOUR!
