Salisbury

We left ourBnB in Bath on a cloudy morning and headed for the railway station. A short journey of an hour or so and we arrived in the picturesque town Salisbury (think Stonehenge, Salisbury cathedral, old Sarum etc)

Our BnB turned out to be a cute flat below our host’s house, with a view of the famous cathedral out of our window!

We had a walk around town and visited the museum. This gave us a good potted history of the area, including Stonehenge.

Lovely setting for a tea shop

Salisbury Poultry Cross – circa 1450 – marked the area of the old market where poultry was sold
One of the gates to the city

Even the local fudge shop (they are so big on fudge over here!) cashes in on the Stonehenge idea!

Cute courtyard of houses
Large thatched cottage
Salisbury Museum

I loved these below photos!

A farmer with a sense of humour created his own ‘Hayhenge’!
