Sherborne Ghost Walk: Audio Tour of Dorset Oldest Town
Sherborne is a town where there’s history in every ancient stone and lingering shadow. On this atmospheric self-guided audio tour, you’ll discover the supernatural side of this historic Dorset market town, exploring its haunted buildings, eerie alleyways, and the spectral residents who’ve refused to depart. This tour starts at the magnificent Sherborne Abbey, whose 1,300-year-old walls have heard countless prayers and may still harbour a few restless souls. You’ll weave through the narrow streets of the town center, passing the old Bridewell prison, historic coaching inns, and the elegant Sherborne House with its famous blue-tinted apparition. You’ll explore hidden tunnels, ancient almshouses, and even an old laundry home where a young girl’s ghost still moves around on the original floor level. The tour ends at The Conduit, a historic house in the heart of town where local legends tell of executions and rebellion.
