This short walking trail , produced by Exeter City Council, explains how Exeter became such a thriving and wealthy city by the late 16th century.

The trail starts officially at the Guildhall, High Street and includes 8 Information boards dotted along the route - see yellow rectangles on our map.

It ends the far side of the river, however, our GPX route includes an interesting route to return to the Guildhall.

Exeter's popular RED Coats do free guided tours - check here for details
