  • | Pre-booking not required
  • | Walk / Tour

A digital or paper-based self-guided tour of Grimsby' town centre buildings and their histories.

Look Up!, explore heritage and find hidden gems in Grimsby's town centre!

This Look Up! Tour is about looking up beyond the ground floors of our buildings to the upper floors that are less likely to have been altered over the decades. So, by looking at their original styling we can explore the history of buildings, their stories and very often, the artistry and embellishments by early craftsmen. But, please be careful when ‘looking up’ – you may find you need to take extra care when walking.
This Guide starts and ends at Grimsby's Town Hall and takes you around the town in a clockwise direction. However, you could start and end at any point in the guide’s instructions………..
