The Hidden Places of Yorkshire is a beautifully
illustrated guide and explores Yorkshire in a relaxed
narrative style. It contains a wealth of interesting
information on the history, the countryside, the towns and
villages and
established visitor attractions, but also focuses on
promoting the lesser known places of interest and places to
stay, eat and drink.
The county of Yorkshire is full
of scenic, historical and cultural diversity. In the northwest are the
picturesque Dales with its varied scenery of peat moorland,
green pastureland and scattered woods intersected by the
numerous brooks, streams and rivers. To the northeast are
the imposing Yorkshire Moors, the rich agricultural Vale of
York, the chalky hills of the Wolds and the dramatic
storm-tossed coastline. In the south are the industrial and
commercial cities and towns, which have made such a major
contribution to our industrial and cultural heritage.
