Joining the #York Civic Trust for a walk around some blue plaques. Here’s one for Benjamin Seebohm Rowntree.

Today I’m at the University of #York to look at their art collection. Here’s the library - up there. To get there I have cross a bridge over University Road. On the way, I get to see an untitled, Grade II listed sculpture by Austin Andrew Wright.

Join us for this year's York Festival of Ideas. 31 May to 13 June. #YorkIdeas

This weather is just made for beer and for our festival! There’ll be at least one Theakston’s on the list, but likely a much darker, stronger and peculier choice than this one… 36 days to go btw… #yorkbeer #yorkevents
