When I first went to the UK in the early 80s one of my English coworkers was back home visiting his sister and he took me to Petworth House and I've been a bit Turner fan ever since. I love Tate Britain

lovely town. We remember the Red Lion In Salisbury and their very nice restaurant from many years ago.

There’s a three part series just released on BBC on the Salisbury episode.

In March 2018 Salisbury became the site of an unprecedented national emergency. This three-part dramatisation focuses on the extraordinary heroism shown by the local community.
