ACCURACY OF INFORMATION: While we use reasonable endevours to maintain accuracy of information on the website, its emphasis is as a starting point for further research and it should not be totally relied upon for completeness or accuracy as events in the hands of others may change. Descriptions of historic locations often requires describing historic events. While we aim to check the consistency of the various events described here with evidence and other records of those events, our emphasis is to provide a journalistic guide to the locations with the history purely intended as very brief, concise and not necessarily complete summaries of events most relevant to the sites described. If conducting historical research we would suggest you visit the locations in our guide and any relevant archives to study direct evidence of their history in more detail. We welcome feedback should you verify any information to be different to that in Yorkshire.guide
