Arrived at Thirsk - 95 km

Apr 25, 2020

At the end of day 2 we have made it to another North Yorkshire market town, Thirsk, just West of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park.


Ruins suggest Thirsk was founded around 500 BC! The market in Thirsk was established in 1145 and is still running to this date. It is the focal point for local farmers, traders and visitors. The town was once known for its leather tanning and saddlery trade, but this was replaced in the 19th century by the production of farming implements.


For those with a keen interest in Love Island, this is where Georgia Steel is from!!
