Beverley’s rich historic legacy is visible in its many beautiful buildings. Already an important religious center in Anglo-Saxon times, it continued to grow throughout the Middle Ages as a place of pilgrimage and as a prosperous wool-trading center, and its landmark buildings and structures from that period, such as the famous Beverley Minster and North Bar, still attract visitors. In the 18th century Beverley became the county town of the East Riding of Yorkshire and many streets and buildings were rebuilt in the Georgian style, including the market cross, which later secretly sheltered some soldiers during wartime. Beverley Racecourse was also established at this time. Building continued in the 19th and 20th centuries and alongside the town’s landmark buildings the story of Beverley can be seen in its pubs, including the gas-lit White Horse Inn, known locally as Nellie's Pub, hospitals, railway station buildings, industrial sites, theaters and cinemas, and more, up to the present day. Beverley in 50 Buildings explores the history of this historic town through a selection of its most interesting buildings and structures, showing the changes that have taken place in Beverley over the years. This book will appeal to all those who live in Beverley or who have an interest in the town.
