A guide to historic walks in North Yorkshire in 20, mostly circular, routes, Historic Walks in North Yorkshire attempts to reveal some of the splendours of this land of the 'broad acres'. Accompanied by OS mapping and illustrated with colour photographs, the series of walks combine landscape with architecture, natural beauty with history, and our heritage with our diverse and complex culture. When we approach these historic sites on foot, a greater appreciation of their being, purpose and geographical setting is gained, along with the satisfaction of reaching a place under our own steam, watching its contours and outline unfold, as well as sharing an experience common to the ancient and ancestral people who once developed, built and inhabited them. The routes have both a scenic and historical appeal, taking you from open moorland and exposed sections of hillside and cliff to the more sheltered dales and the streets of York.
Jim Rubery is a keen participant in outdoor pursuits, and spends his time climbing, mountaineering, walking, skiing, canoeing and even caving and sailing. Jim has a walking column, 'Rambling with Rubery', in Yorkshire Life, Cheshire Life and Lancashire Life magazines. It is from his researches that his love of historical places has grown.
