Century Augustinian ruins dominate the town and are
certainly worth a visit. The Priory, founded by Robert
de Brus was
considered to be the best in England when built in 1129. Westgate is
now the main hub of activity, a cobbled, thriving, bustling
street of shops, pubs, restaurants and businesses. There is a market
every Thursday and Saturday, small selection of stalls on a
Tuesday and specialist markets, such as the French Market and
Farmers’ Market visiting regulary. Enjoy some wonderful
inspirational landscape artwork and photography by artists, John Cheall and Graham Shackleton- the
images in Yorkshire are amazing! activities
