About the event

Acomb's Hidden History
What's Acomb's oldest building? Where (and what) was Yarcomb Sand 'ole? And what was the scandal that saw Acomb House end up in the 19th Century national news?

Join Dr Liam Herringshaw and Dr Simon Rogerson of York’s Hidden History to take a deep dive into the story of Acomb.

Acomb Through Time lasts two hours, with an introductory talk at Acomb Explore, a stroll round Acomb lasting around an hour, and complimentary tea and coffee back at the library. Participants will have the chance to peruse maps, books and specimens relating to Acomb Through Time, and to chat with Drs Herringshaw and Rogerson, as well as fellow participants. The walk follows a step-free route around the historic village, and is suitable for all ages.
