From here it is 'just' 185 locks to get to London ;-)

A fool, a fool! I met a fool i' the forest, A motley fool! - a miserable world! As I do live by food, I met a fool Who laid him down and bask'd him in the sun And rail'd on Lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool.

Beautiful and well preserved half-timbered building, you will not find many in similar style and quality around. Even if you do not enter the museum it is worth a detour to have a view.

Obviously not the original Shakespeare Theatre, but a similar touristy place as the on ein London - much less 'into the face' though. The shop has quite some nice items, the Café is ok and you can get up to the tower for a view. On the different floors costumes from plays are on display - worth checking them out. If you join a play expect to have a number of school classes in there.

The Hall was built in the reign of Charles I and throughout its chequered history has seen calamitous events including being extensively damaged from a gunpowder explosion in 1643. Just over a century later the Hall was actually pulled down but re-built the following year. In 1863 major alterations resulted in a Hall very much as you see it today. Ill fate dogged it again in 1946 when fire, started from a cigarette, completely gutted the beautifully proportioned Ballroom, when a valuable painting by Gainsborough of David Garrick was destroyed. The Town Hall houses many interesting and historic paintings and treasures and it is unsurprising that today smoking is definitely not permitted.
