I have often driven past the York Cemetry but never had occasion to go in. So what a way to spend my birthday afternoon than have a walk in the sunshine and have a look around. Opened in 1837 the cemetry went into liquidation in 1966. Passing to Crown ownership it became overgrown and dilapidated until the Friends of York Cemetry was formed and took steps to revitalise it. It now makes a tranquil space to visit and is being managed in a wildlife friendly way.
