Living in Lichfield
With its iconic triple-spired Cathedral and charming Georgian and Tudor-style streets, the town’s rich history is a big part of its character. It’s a place full of culture and commerce: as the birthplace of Samuel Johnson, there’s a thriving literary tradition, while market days and fairs have been held in the same Market Square for the past nine centuries. The Three Spires Shopping Centre has plenty of high street favourites, while the Tudor Row arcade is great for boutiques, arts and crafts and gifts. Throughout the year, popular events draw the community together, like the Shrovetide Fair, Lichfield Food Festival and Proms In The Park.
