Product Description
Product Description
Full-colour campaigning guide to the 120 or so pubs in Yorkshire and Humberside which still have interiors or internal features of real historic significance some of them stretching back a century or more. It is the first ever publication of its kind to cover the entire Yorkshire region. The book is the product of many years of surveying and research by CAMRA volunteers who are dedicated to helping preserve and protect the UK's pub heritage. This guide sets out to celebrate the genuine pub heritage that survives in Yorkshire, to share an understanding of its importance and to sound a call-to-arms for its better protection.
About the Author
With a background in historic building conservation and town planning, David Gamston was a pioneer of CAMRA's early pub campaigning and heritage work, first in York and later nationally. He was the initiating force behind CAMRA's National Inventory and founding chairman of CAMRA's Pub Heritage Group. Past titles have included Trouble Brewing: Pub Refurbishments Over the Limit?, the CAMRA National Inventory and Historic Pubs in York.

Yorkshire's real heritage pub: David Gamston - Invaluable guide to an important part of Yorkshire's heritage
23 Jan 2012
Format:Paperback
As lovers of good beer and interesting architecture/interiors, this has proven to be an invaluable guide for my Girlfriend and I. Sensibly organised it provides a ready reference to some great pubs across Yorkshire. It's not exhaustive, there are a few watering holes in York missing that might have been in there, but for places you are not familiar with it is an invaluable guide, directing you to some amazing places. I live in Hull, and apart from a couple of places in the old town had no idea there were any interesting pubs in the city. This book has opened up a whole range of places for me to visit locally that I had no idea existed! With clear maps of locations, and excellent descriptions of the key features this has really improved my appreciation of places in my home town and allowed us to find interesting pubs in places we are unfamiliar with. Excellent.
EDIT 01/02/2012 - A new pub has recently opened in York which is worth a mention in this guide - the York Tap, situated on York rail station. A fine Victorian interior (although the bar itself is modern, but done very sympathetically) and one of the best ranges of real ales to be found anywhere in York. Well worth a look!
