Experience our fantastic women’s history walking tour which digs the dirt on Victorian society, unearths women’s achievements and exhumes the histories of women buried in Glasgow’s Necropolis, as featured in Clare Balding’s book Walking Home.

Our tour guides will tell the stories of both the notorious and forgotten women buried in these atmospheric surroundings.

Women of the Necropolis Heritage Walk on Sunday 20th March from 2pm to 4pm.

Please check your spam or junk email folders if you have not received this in your inbox.
