Walk On The Wold Side: Yorkshire Wolds film spanning two decades
A new film featuring footage of the Yorkshire Wolds taken over the past 20 years is to be screened in Beverley.
It has been put together by East Riding Archives and Local Studies Service and will be shown at the Treasure House on Tuesday, August 23.
The video tour travels across the countryside and takes in numerous villages that nestle among the hills. It is a chance for people to find out more about the scenery on their doorstep.
Sam Bartle, Treasure House collections officer, said: I grew up on the East Yorkshire Wolds, but this video presentation taught me all sorts of facts about villages that I thought I knew well.
The video tour also makes brief stops at local events, such as the Kiplingcotes Derby and the Driffield Coin Scramble, and looks at a selection of local crafts in the area.
The video presentation will take place at 6.30pm in the Treasure House Education Room. Tickets are £3 and booking is essential as places are limited.
To reserve a seat, call 01482 392790 or visit the archives and local studies search room at the Treasure House.

Yorkshire Lavender
It was the first week in August and the weather was perfect to visit Yorkshire Lavender. It is situated on the Howardian Hills, not far from Castle Howard and has lovely views over the Vale of York. Apart from a level walk to the Visitor Centre & Cafe etc. it is all on quite steep slopes so that the lavender fields drain well and face maximum sunshine.
It hadn’t been open long when I visited some years ago but what a change now! It is all free and a wonderful day out walking around the lavender and other flowers. There is a Visitor Centre, Plant Nursery, Gift Shop and a wonderful Tea Room with a good menu that includes tasty lavender flavoured cakes and desserts! I still have the Lavender I purchased there years ago and I think it is well worth another visit next year.
Hope you enjoy the walk around and view in HD if possible.
