As the owner of Real Yorkshire Tours, I am always out and about in "God's own county" showing visitors the history, heritage & culture of the area. With this Real Yorkshire blog I hope to share some of this information and bring to life the best of Yorkshire.
As you drive across the Yorkshire Dales or other areas of Yorkshire you often come across standing crosses outside church yards, on village greens, along ancient routeways or in market squares. These free standing upright stone structures were mostly erected during the medieval period up to the 1500’s, although many have been repaired or replaced more recently.
It’s not often a restaurant in Leeds gets reviewed in the Sunday Times and receives a 5 star review, let alone a little neighbourhood bistro in an out of town suburb. But quite recently Camilla Long from the publication visited with her husband on a stop over as she headed further up North and gave Bavette a glowing review!
