I'll be leading a free walk at this event - hope to see you there @YorkshireGuides
Today, 18th April, is #WorldHeritageday and nowhere is heritage more significant than Yorkshire, where a rich history provides the heritage that gives it a unique culture. 18th May is Yorkshire's most important heritage event: eventbrite.co.uk/e/yorkshire-he… #WorldHeritage

@WminsterGuides Sorry to miss this
@WminsterGuides Yes I was sorry to miss this talk I'm sure it was very interesting
Tremendous news for #Bradford and the North in general I'm looking forward to welcoming visitors to this vibrant and emergent city. Well done everyone who worked on the bid
This is the confidence that being named as the #CityofCulture2025 gives to a city, to potential investors, other businesses, employers, residents, local authorities, visitors etc Great sentiment Marko. Hopefully many others will follow. 🚀

A thank you from all at @YorksSociety from friends across Yorkshire and beyond. Acknowledging a life of service. Please pass this on.
Dear @RoyalFamily On behalf of the people of God's own Country, The Yorkshire Society would like to say a poetic thank you to Her Majesty The Queeen for giving 70 years of service and 'A Job Well Done'. youtu.be/WdcPml9i-OQ
I was working in #Bradford2025 recently just brushing up my knowledge of the city in anticipation of the many visitors expectec
Fingers crossed for a Bradford win! However, regardless of who wins, it’s great that culture & multiculturalism is being discussed & celebrated across the UK. Both @LEEDS_2023 & @bradford2025 have already created some great positive energy, collaboration and activity.
Tate Wilkinson also operated a theatre in #Pontefract for a while and is buried at All Saints Church in #York
The current Theatre Royal and Opera House in Wakefield was built on the site of the original Theatre constructed in 1776 by James Banks for Tate Wilkinson (1739 - 1803) an Actor-Manager who operated the York circuit of Theatres .
This was a great day for #Pontefract and really opened people's eyes to the wealth of heritage in the town
