You can climb to the top, 307 narrow steps,<br />
for stupendous views over the town. It’s well<br />
worth the effort though probably not for<br />
those with vertigo or claustrophobia.<br />
Look out for the weeping angel, a wonderful<br />
statue which forms part of a 17th century<br />

lit up, an ingenious feat of engineering in<br />

smothered in a technicolour light<br />
performance in a show that makes audiences<br />
gasp. This free 50 minute show is an<br />
absolute must-see. State of the art<br />
projection technology creates a truly magical<br />
experience under a night sky.
