Selby Streets for All

Selby Town Centre, Selby, North Yorkshire

Walk the streets of Selby town centre to identify what you think is historically special and what makes the street distinctive: connections to its history, how it is used today, what are the defining features?

Historic England have been running and encouraging communities to undertake projects to enhance their streets: working to reduced clutter, improved accessibility, and assess the quality of materials and design. The result is streetscapes that are both more attractive and useable and that celebrate their distinctive character.

Our historic streets can sometimes be blighted by accumulated signs, mediocre paving, obstructed footways, or dominated by traffic infrastructure and motor vehicles. This can make them unattractive and prevents us all from enjoying the historic centre of Selby that means so much to us.

Selby Heritage Action Zone are looking for volunteers to undertake a streetscape audit record both the positive features, and identify any issues in an Audit Questionnaire trail, and think about what we could do to address the issues and improve the area.
