Salisbury is a world-recognised historical city known for its stunning English landscape and is home to one of the finest Medieval Cathedrals in the United Kingdom, boasting the tallest spire in Britain. Salisbury Cathedral also holds the famous Magna Carta and the oldest working clock in the world, believed to date back to 1836. The Market Square provides the key entertainment on Tuesdays and Saturdays when the reputable farmers market, which is almost 600 years old, takes over and adds to the area’s genteel charms. Found to the north of Salisbury on Salisbury Plain sits Stonehenge, a World Heritage Site and the best-known prehistoric monument in Europe, dating back 5,000 years. About two miles north of Salisbury is the English Heritage site of Old Sarum, where you can unearth over 2,000 years of history and find out how the Romans, Normans and Saxons have all left their mark at one of the earliest settlement sites of Salisbury.
