The Shambles

The Shambles

Step onto this incredible, winding medieval street, famous for its beautifully preserved, overhanging timber-framed buildings.

The street is so narrow in places that the buildings on opposite sides almost touch at the top! It truly feels like stepping straight into a history book or even Diagon Alley! It’s packed with charming, quirky independent shops, unique souvenir spots and cosy little eateries.

It’s the perfect place for a gentle browse and to grab a truly unique photo. As a free place to explore, The Shambles is an absolute must-see and easily one of the most famous streets in the country.
