The Staffordshire Hoard

Due to the high demand to obtain tickets for the ‘Anglo Saxon Footsteps’ daytime tours at Lichfield Cathedral, a further 92 tickets have been released and are now available through the Lichfield Garrick.


These twice daily forty five minute tours are ideal for young and old (suitable for visitors aged 5 and upwards) and a perfect day out for the grandchildren. Visitors will walk in the footsteps of the Anglo-Saxons to discover the origins of the Cathedral and enjoy its stories this summer holiday. You also get an opportunity to take the free Staffordshire Hoard tour.


Canon Pete Wilcox, Chancellor of Lichfield Cathedral commented: “We have been overwhelmed with the very positive and enthusiastic response to the Staffordshire Hoard on Tour coming to the City of Lichfield and we have taken the decision to offer more tickets for the ‘Anglo Saxon Footsteps’ tours, which have proved particularly popular for the summer break”.


Tickets for the Evening Experience Tours (£15 per person) and the free 40 minute timed entry tours are also still available from the Garrick Box Office  - 01543 412121 or www.lichfieldgarrick.com. For latest news please visit www.lichfield-cathedral.org or www.staffordshirehoard.org.uk
