Spring equinox wanderings, Bootham Stray

In search of springtime green, in the open land beyond the factory. Bootham Stray wander, and gathering nettle-tops, on the spring equinox.

Year in review: notes and thoughts on planning decisions and other local matters of interest I wasn’t able to cover at the time.

Along the cycle track by the old Rowntree factory, remembering Rowntree Halt, and looking at ‘Cocoa West’, then and now.

Photos of York in the sunshine, from a brief walk earlier this evening.

A walk along part of Leeman Road, visiting some of its housing, and checking on demolition taking place for the York Central development.

Demolition of some buildings on York Central is now underway. A recent visit to Cinder Lane, and the ‘Fire House’.

Thoughts on the coronavirus signs in the Museum Gardens and Dean’s Park, and a brief trip to Coney Street.

Just a few photos from a short walk on a sunny afternoon, featuring nothing festive.
