About the audio tour
This tour opens the door to get an insider's view about living in Onehouse as we walk round. The presence of a powerful land owner prevented urban growth swamping the area. The distinctive style of the local buildings and the stories tucked away in these fascinating buildings creates a world set in the past.
All profits from this tour go to the Church and Parish funds.
It is possible to walk miles in Onehouse well away from the public roads. Come discover the characters and settings that make this one of the quintessential villages in Britain.
Major Landmarks
