"The Peak District forms the southern extremity of the Pennines.[5] Much of it is upland above 1,000 feet (300 m), its highest point being Kinder Scout at 2,087 ft (636 m).[6] Despite its name, the landscape has fewer sharp peaks than rounded hills, plateaus, valleys, limestone gorges and gritstone escarpments (the "edges").[7][8] The mostly rural area is surrounded by conurbations and large urban areas, including Manchester, Huddersfield, Sheffield, Derby and Stoke-on-Trent. The national park has formal boundaries. It covers most of the Dark Peak and White Peak, but the wider Peak District is less well defined.[9] The Dark Peak is largely uninhabited moorland and gritstone escarpments in the northern Peak District and its eastern and western margins."
"In 1819, a museum was established in Philosophical Hall, Bond Street, by the Leeds Philosophical and Literary Society, and in 1821 it opened to the public. In 1921, control of the museum was handed to the Corporation of Leeds which later became Leeds City Council. In 1862, Philosophical Hall was rebuilt in Park Row, where its stone portico can still be seen on the west side of the road.[1] In 1941, the museum building and artifacts were badly damaged by bombing.[2][3] In 1965 the museum was closed, and a few exhibits removed to a couple of rooms in the city library in 1966."
"In the 11th century William the Conqueror granted the lands on which the park stands to Ilbert de Lacy for his support in the Harrying of the North in the winter 1069–70. De Lacy, who founded Pontefract Castle, was a knight from Normandy. During the 13th century, the area was used as a hunting park for the de Lacys, who were the Lords of Bowland on the Yorkshire-Lancaster border."
"Partisan is a vibrant, independent coffee shop located on Micklegate in York and the cafe has been a long term dream for owner, Florencia. They serve a modern menu for breakfast, brunch, lunch and afternoon tea every day of the week. And they also open on evenings later in the week for casual dining."
"We are an independent speciality coffee shop/restaurant situated in York’s most elegant street. We have an all day Breakfast/Brunch menu and a few lunch dishes. We cook everything to order using the best quality fresh ingredients."
"Located on Micklegate, Partisan serve both breakfast and brunch. Treat yourself to French Toast, Eggs Benedict, Smashed Avocado and Melted Goats Cheese or the fabulous Partisan Breakfast."
"Brew & Brownie have two locations in York, just doors apart from one another on Museum Street. One of the locations operates as a Bakeshop and the other as a great little cafe. Inspired by the seasons and the tastes from their countryside upbringings, the owners of Brew & Brownie serve a menu of sweet and savoury treats plus premium coffees and loose leaf teas."
"Famous for their spectacular pancakes – and many other yummy sweet and savoury treats. Normally it’s hard to get a table in here, so make sure to get here early (or be prepared to wait!) Currently open for click and collect or order at the door."
"What’s on the menu – York’s best brownies delivered to your doorstep – what’s not to love?. Millionaire’s shortbread and rocky road are on the menu too."
"Nestled in the south of the city, Middleton Park is a great attraction for people from the likes of Morley, Belle Isle and Beeston. The 190 hectare green space offers a blend of traditional parkland and ancient woodland alongside bowling greens, a playground and a fishing lake."
"The Raj is an authentic Indian restaurant proudly owned and run by an Indian national, so you are guaranteed the best of the cuisine. The Raj takes on a contemporary style of Indian cuisine without disregarding the rich flavors behind it. The place is considered a hidden gem in York, and those who have discovered it leave impressed."
"Traditional Tearoom on the Market Place which has just had a nice refit. A great lunch spot in the heart of Malton. 34 Market Pl, Malton YO17 7LW01653 694982"
"We have cheated a little with this entry as Trinity Kitchen isn’t technically just one place. Located on the upper floor of the Trinity shopping complex, the Kitchen is a hotbed of street food pizazz and a blend of different cultures and flavours. Along with a few regular stalls, most of the vendors here come and go on a cyclical basis, ensuring there is always something new to get your teeth into."
"Then Trinity Kitchen is your secret weapon for eating out with the family in Leeds. An ever-changing line up of street food vendors sit alongside a bunch of permanent eateries, meaning there’s always something new to try at this glorified food court. Not only that, but there’s plenty of seating, high chairs and room to manoeuvre a pram too."
