The Tower Tour

About
Ready for an unforgettable adventure?Step beyond the public view and uncover the hidden heights of the Hospital of St Cross on our Tower Tour โ a rare and exclusive experience.
This 90-minute to two-hour guided tour reveals secret parts of the chapelโs ancient structure, guiding you through dusty passageways, over exposed beams, up spiral staircases โ and, weather permitting, along the parapet of the historic tower. ๐ฐ
Itโs equal parts hands-on adventure and historical deep dive โ ideal for the sure-footed and strong-stomached!
๐ Suitable for ages 12+ only. Expect:
Narrow spiral stairs with no handrails
Uneven floors, low beams & steep climbs
A backward step onto a ladder (!)
๐ Wear sturdy footwear (no heels or flip-flops), trousers over skirts, and bring a torch if you wish. Bags must be hands-free.
