MEDIEVAL characters brought a cyber screening to life when they took part in the filming of a virtual tour of Hereford's Old House.

The project will allow people to experience the 17th century High Town landmark without entering the building.

Dave Llewellyn, custodian of the Old House said: "Virtual tours are excellent for young and old alike and our tour is an exciting development in offering access to all visitors."

The film will offer viewers 360-degree panoramic photography backed up by historic characters.

Kate Andrew, Herefordshire Council's principal heritage officer said: "Heritage services are very excited about this innovative project and anxious to keep Herefordshire museums up with the times."
