Dozens of buildings across Warwick district are set to throw open their doors next month, giving locals a chance to explore some local history.

Heritage Open Days runs from September 6 to 15, and will see nearly 50 local buildings open, some of which are not normally accessible to the public.

This year's event, which is part of England's largest festival of history and culture, will see locals allowed inside Guy's Cliffe Walled Garden, a number of local churches and even the Leper Hospital in Warwick which is currently being repurposed.

Other local attractions including Packwood House, Baddesley Clinton, Hill Close Gardens and Bagot's Castle will be offering free admission at limited times during the festival.

Among the historic venues taking part is the Lord Leycester in Warwick which will be running tours across the festival.
