About this Event

Meet at the Giddy Up cafe in Fortune St Park. An ancient burial ground offers a quiet place of repose, where George Fox, one of the founders of the Society of Friends, is buried- learn about Quaker burials and discover the biodiversity of the garden today. Fortune St takes its name from the Elizabethan playhouse which once stood there. A pocket park, it provides a haven from the bustle around.
