Lichfield Attractions

|
Lichfield, about 25mi/40km north of the City of Birmingham, is a quiet and attractive town. Its main attractions are the superb cathedral and its associations with Samuel Johnson (1709-1784), the English writer who published his two-volume "Dictionary of the English Language" 1746-1755. Until the publication of the "Oxford English Dictionary" (1884) it was the definitive work on vocabulary and pronunciation.
Lichfield is an ideal location for country walks and cycling, a visit to the nature reserve or a place to watch the boats going through the locks.
