101 North Yorkshire Gems

101 North Yorkshire Gems is written for those who find delight in discovering unexpected treasures tucked away in historic towns and villages. It provides details of forgotten or half seen attractions in an easy to use guide and is ideal to refer to when out and about. North Yorkshire, with its year round beauty, its dramatic moors and stunning coastline is also the home of numerous towns and villages packed with stunning buildings and street art and sculptures reflecting the rich heritage of the region.
All of the attractions in this book can be reached without crossing muddy fields and provide an enjoyable form of gentle exercise, with hopefully, a little mental stimulation. No expensive clothing is required, though suitable footwear is advisable and a copy of a good street map for the region may be useful. There are plenty of places to visit and picnic in stunning surroundings whilst getting out in all seasons.
Some of the attractions are well known, but hopefully the majority will be new discoveries, and even better, none of them cost any money to see.
