A spring clean for Bishopthorpe War Memorial - and after 86 years - looking the better for it!
Bishopthorpe War Memorial has been in place at the junction of Church Lane and Bishopthorpe Road for 86 years and, until recently, was looking the worse for wear. On 25th April, Burrows Davies Ltd. of Strensall brought the Portland stone Memorial back to - well, perhaps not quite back to its pristine state of 86 years ago, but as near as is possible.
