The Old Rifle Range and Underground Norwich Tour

Overview

Discover one of Norwich’s most unusual underground spaces on this guided small-group tour. Begin above ground on Upper St Giles Street, once known as the ‘Harley Street of Norwich’, and uncover stories of the prominent people who lived and worked in this historic part of the city. Then descend beneath the street into a vast, atmospheric space originally created as a merchant’s wine cellar in the 1700s. Discover how it later became a rifle range and hear the stories connected to this long-hidden site. Closed away for decades and rarely seen by the public, the Old Rifle Range offers a fascinating new perspective on the history hidden beneath Norwich.
