⚠️ Scam alert We've been made aware of fake text messages informing people that they have an unpaid Penalty Charge Notice (PCN). The text gives a link to a fake government website in the hope that people will click on it and provide personal details, including bank details. This would give the information to scammers. We will never contact anyone about Penalty Charge Notices by text. We have no way of knowing your phone number. Penalty Charge Notices are issued in person on the vehicle only, or occasionally handed to the driver. Payments are made via our website at northyorks.gov.uk/roads-park…, not the government website.

The monument on Towton battlefield (the Towton Cross) was erected in 1927/8 by archaeologist James Ogden of Harrogate, using the cross patée from a nearby memorial at Barkston Ash - a likely survival of the lost Towton Chapel. Merry Xmas & a Happy New Year to all my followers!
