Obviously, things like the Beverley Minster stand out though what is also very evident from the sky is the massive scare on the surface, the Flemingate development. From the…

Visitors to Beverley’s Wednesday Market enjoyed the continental life on a beautiful Saturday in the town. As the temperatures soared and summer finally reared its head, shoppers made the most of the conditions and took time out to relax. The chairs and tables outside the Queen’s Head, Fusion and Range were packed with people enjoying a beer, glass of wine or just a cup of coffee as they happily watched…

Pictures from yesterday evening at the Beverley Leisure Centre, votes for the Beverley & Holderness constituency were counted as the Election finally came to an end. The ballot boxes started to arrive just after 10pm though a long process followed of sorting counting and recounting in order to declare a winner.

Yesterday evening what I set out to cover never materialised though I did meet a local man called Paddy Sweeney on Toll Gavel. Paddy is a retired vet and has great dog called Charlie.

The Judges Tower at Beverley Racecourse has without question the best view of the of the finishing line, and it needs to as this is where all the information is gathered for those too close to call photo finishes. Racetech engineer John Stephens who operated the photo finish equipment yesterday showed just how sensitive the camera was to movement. A slight vibration was enough to cause distortion to the picture…

The Beverley Westwood due to the poor weather resembled the Lake District though this did not put people off from playing golf! Despite the standing water that in places was too deep to walk through golfers still continued to play on ten of the holes which remained open. The crater was completely filled with water and some dogs seemed to like the change and were more then happy to dive…
Snow returned to Beverley again this morning, while some of the people in the town will welcome the snow back others are left frustrated with all sporting fixtures being cancelled throughout the town.
