ThingsToDoA short heritage loop
Follow a few town-council trail points rather than all twenty.
A market town read through its streets / UPPINGHAM
Uppingham Heritage Trail
Use the town council’s trail to look beyond shopfronts at the old school, market buildings and changing street names. Twenty mapped points give you choices rather than a compulsory circuit. A short loop from the Market Place is enough to start noticing how the town grew.
