Join me for a walk around one of Yorkshire's most iconic towns of all: Richmond! Located deep in the heart of the county near to the Yorkshire Dales, this 1,000 year-old market town boasts a spectacular Norman castle, staggering riverside scenery, one of England's biggest marketplaces, countless historic buildings and even a gorgeous set of natural waterfalls!
On our walk around Richmond, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Holy Trinity Church (Green Howards Museum), The Obelisk, Richmond Town Hall, The Golden Lion Pub, Richmond Market Hall, Richmond Market Place, Richmond Castle, The Bishop Blaize Pub, The Barr, Friar's Wynd, The Georgian Theatre Royal, Friary Gardens, the ruins of Richmond Friary, Ryder's Wynd, Richmondshire Museum, the Victoria Drinking Fountain, the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Richmond School, Mercury Bridge, The Batts, the River Swale and Richmond Falls.
