📱 eBook en inglés York's Hidden Treasures

This book tells the big story of the city of York by exploring the small remnants of past lives. It will tell ancient stories that are a daily part of the modern city, such as the Tudor staircase still in use in an office building, and the medieval gargoyles watching people go by from their perches on the eaves of coffee shops.

Yorks story unfolds through six sections. Protection explores how the city has survived centuries of threats through resilient architecture and infrastructure. Passageways examines its snickelways and spiritual routes, both physical and symbolic. Looking Down and Looking Up reveal hidden treasures often missed, from newly uncovered cobblestones to discoveries of ancient settlements and lost churches. Past Lives highlights influential figures whose legacies still shape the city, including the posthumous fame of Guy Fawkes. Years of Welcome turns to modern York, celebrating its pubs, cafés, and communal spaces. All of this rests on deep historical context reaching back to the citys beginnings.
