Audio Guides

The Trust is pleased to provide audio tours for some of our most visited churches.

Downloadable directly from our website, these guides provide a spoken word version of our successful 'Walk Round Guides'. Voiced by Simon Cook, an actor with over twenty years experience including seasons with the Royal Shakespeare Company,they provide a hi-tech addition to the Trust’s already wide range of visitor information. (For helpful information on downloading the guides please go to the bottom of the page).

At present, we are able to provide two audio guides for St Leonard's Church, Bridgnorth and for St Peter’s Church, Sudbury. To listen to these podcasts, please click on the links to the right of this page.

Although the podcast downloads are free, we rely on voluntary contributions to ensure a future for the beautiful buildings in our care and to return them to the use of the local communities where possible. Just £2 would enable a child to take part in a workshop, so please consider making a donation and help us to protect a unique part of England’s heritage.

Donate now!

We hope that you will enjoy using our audio guides and thank you for your interest in our work.
