About This Book

The author offers a practical and picturesque motoring guide through Yorkshire, combining itineraries, road notes, and evocative landscape and architectural descriptions. Divided into sections on the dales, the coast, chiefly old churches, and York and the south, it provides suggested routes, distances, road conditions, and points of interest, illustrated with photographs. Along the way the narrative mixes scenic observation—moors, heather, cliffs, harbors—and concise historical and architectural sketches of castles, abbeys, and churches, with tips for securing solitude and timing visits. The tone balances practical advice for motorists with reflective passages on memorable drives and local character.
