Back to Business!

 

We are delighted to announce that the Yorkshire Architectural and York Archaeological Society (YAYAS) is back to face-to-face lectures in the Friends Meeting House. However, we are aware that many people do not feel comfortable attending gatherings under the current conditions, so we are continuing to live-stream our lectures on Zoom. The links will be sent out via the YAYAS mailing list - to ensure we have your current contact details, or to join, please contact Tonita at membership@yayas.org.uk. We often put details on our Facebook page as well, so do keep an eye out!

"York in close up - the walks" takes you on a wander round many of York's streets and lesser known areas showing you lots of little details which often go unnoticed. There is a circular route around the centre which is split in to 4 parts and 3 stand alone walks which take you a bit further out.
The paperback book is A5 and wire bound so the pages fold back and make it a very convenient size to carry around. It contains 80 pages with over 1000 photos. The price is £15 + £2.50 p&p, purchase it from Catherine at https://www.facebook.com/catherine.sotheran

or email us at YAYAS for more information if you're not a Facebooker!
