 Historic Walks in North Yorkshire attempts to reveal some of the splendours of this land of the ?broad acres’. Accompanied by OS mapping and illustrated with colour photographs, the series of walks combine landscape with architecture, natural beauty with history, and our heritage with our diverse and complex culture. By approaching these historic sites on foot, a greater appreciation of their being, purpose and geographical setting are gained, along with the satisfaction of reaching the place under your own steam, watching its contours and outline unfold, as well as sharing an experience common to the ancient and ancestral people who once developed, built and inhabited them. The book describes 20, mostly circular, walks. They have both a scenic and historical appeal, taking you from open moorland and exposed sections of hillside and cliff to the more sheltered dales and the streets of York. Kartenausschnitt
