Frequently asked questions
- Which are the UK's most historic theatres?
- We list 4,862 theatres. The Theatre Royal Bristol (1766) is the oldest continuously working theatre in the English-speaking world; London's West End and the Royal Shakespeare Company at Stratford anchor the modern scene. Many Victorian and Edwardian playhouses survive in regional towns.
- Are these places free to visit?
- Many places in the guide are free to enter β almost every national museum, every public park and garden, every parish church and cathedral. Castles, historic houses and theme parks usually charge admission; National Trust and English Heritage members visit those properties free.
- Where does the data come from?
- Every entry is built from open data: OpenStreetMap (locations, tags, opening hours), Wikipedia (descriptions), Wikidata (structured facts and operator information), Wikimedia Commons (images), ONS open data (population). The site never makes runtime API calls β everything is fetched at build time and committed.
- How often is this updated?
- A weekly automated job re-fetches the upstream sources and rebuilds the site. Manual editorial corrections are applied as overlays on top of the open data.
