WELLS CATHEDRAL
During spring and summer visitors start to arrive in larger numbers at the Cathedral. Many will come as a family or by themselves. Others will be part of as an organised group. The cathedral guides and welcomers are ready to meet them and answer their questions.
They want to ensure that everyone who comes here is valued, and they want to share their enthusiasm for this place. Throughout the summer the cathedral hosts a wide range of concerts and events.
Each day many visitors come to the cathedral, and explore the building, either by themselves or by joining the regular free guided tours. We work hard to ensure that all who come through the doors are made to feel welcome, and that they come to appreciate the wonder of this place, and all that goes on in it.

HAYNES INTERNATIONAL MOTOR MUSEUM
The Haynes International Motor Museum (an Educational Charitable Trust, No. 292048) is dedicated to restore, retain and preserve motoring and motorcycling items of historical and cultural interest in England.
It is an International Motor Museum taking the view that the complete history of the automobile and motorcycle can only be covered by looking at the developments from all over the world.
Nearly every car in the museum is driven at least once a year. We believe that to preserve our motoring heritage properly all vehicles must be maintained in full working order.
