Travel arrangements – there are good links with trains around the area, and the bus and train station are c. 5-10 minutes walk from the Town Hall. There is parking at the railway station (c. 11.50 per day) and the Ridings shopping centre (£6.00 per day), as well as other car parks around the bus station and in some of the side streets around the Town Hall.
We look forward to seeing you in October.
