Hidden Gems of Plymouth

Ref: C3533288

Plymouth, the ocean city, with panoramic views across the largest natural harbour in Europe is also the home to numerous hidden gems that lay off the more traditional tourist routes, or even go unnoticed in plain sight . During this course we will find out about the cross that marks the spot of the last public execution of its kind, architectural gems that without knowing could easily be missed as well as stories and monuments that bare testament to the rich and varied history of Plymouth
