I’ll also show you where the man who greeted William of Orange on the beach at Torbay lies at rest and tell you his story. You’ll also see where hundreds of people were forced to end their lives in cruelty.
From medieval lifestyles to heart-warming stories and accounts of extreme cruelty, Greyfriars has it all. Come with me and together we shall unveil its’ secrets.
