About this Event

Join award-winning poet Carole Bromley for a leisurely guided walk through the hidden passages, ancient alleyways and atmospheric corners of York that inspired her new book, Ghosts and Ginnels.

Beginning in the heart of the city, Carole will lead a small group through York's winding streets, sharing poems, stories, local history and the curious characters that inhabit this remarkable place. Along the way, discover the city's ghosts, legends and secret spaces through the eyes of an acclaimed Yorkshire poet.

The walk will finish at the Poetry Ph*rm*cy, where there will be an opportunity to meet Carole, have books signed and browse the shelves.

Places are limited to 12 participants to ensure an enjoyable and intimate experience.

Ticket price £15 includes the guided walk and a special event discount of £5 off a signed copy of Ghosts and Ginnels purchased on the day.

Suitable for adults and older children with an interest in poetry, stories and York's rich history. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
