You may even learn some facts about much-loved characters from Outlander and Harry Potter! Adding to the intrigue, the final 15 minutes of the tour will involve an exclusive visit to “The Lost Close” — the ancient vault dates back to 1742, offering a window into the past, and providing a fitting end to an immersive exploration of history and enchantment.
