Walking Cardiff

Be the first to favourite this.

Join Peter Finch and John Briggs on twenty walks around Cardiff, the bustling capital of Wales. Together they visit the new and the ancient, the difficult, the undiscovered, the lesser-known, the artistic, the entertaining, the quirky and the unexpected.

Their journeys encompass the city’s history, and record daily life on its streets, in its parks and its famous and not so famous, buildings.
