Get ready for an immersive journey back to September 20th, 1675, when a single spark ignited a catastrophic fire that reduced much of Northampton to ashes. Guided by an enigmatic Time Traveller, you’ll witness the unfolding disaster, hear the tales of survival, and see how the town rose from the ashes.

Tour Highlights:
St. Mary’s Street – Stand at the very spot where the fire began and discover how a single flame in a thatched house led to devastation.
Market Square – Hear the dramatic accounts of desperate townsfolk, the crumbling of historic buildings, and the narrow escapes from the inferno.
All Saints’ Church – See how this iconic landmark rose from the ashes, thanks to King Charles II’s donation of timber.
