Description
Wetherby Through Time explores the rich history of this Yorkshire town, situated at the confluence of the River Ure and the Great North Road. Archaeological finds reveal that human settlement in the area dates back to the early Bronze Age, with evidence of important river crossings and strategic military routes.
The town's past is marked by significant events, including skirmishes during the Civil War and Oliver Cromwell's passage through the area on the morning of the Battle of Marston Moor. The Wetherby Historical Trust presents a fascinating collection of images that bring this history to life.
