I am continuing with the challenge that I set myself to find greenery within the city walls. This haven of green is situated next to the St. Michael le Belfrey church which prompted Chun See's comment about greenery that led me to challenge myself to find green areas in the city. The monument is set within a small park and is a memorial to those men from York that were killed in South Africa during the Boer War. Although a tranquil haven it has been the scene recently of problems with youngsters congregating during the evenings, drinking alcohol and defacing the memorial with graffiti.
