    It was a pleasure to see the old past of the town still surviving, not demolished all 'for progress' or redevelopment.

    A good experience.

    Nice arts and crafts to be found there, and some great quirky details. We also really enjoyed the playground nearby - which was really good for older children.

    Enjoyed the 1949 rugby game, walk through gardens and town with actors dressed up in period costume.
