Lord Mayor walks city walls
Coun Sue Galloway was joined by more than 300 children from the city’s St Wilfrid’s School and St Barnabas School as she inspected York’s famous bar walls.
It is thought that the event was the first time since 1730 that a civic party had joined the Lord Mayor on a procession of the city’s walls and Lord Mayor’s Walk.
