Want more Halloween movies? Look no further than The Radleys. Shot mostly in London but with five days on location in Yorkshire at the fabulous Whitby Abbey. Screen Yorkshire's Film Office supported the production with locations & crew. Catch it on Sky Cinema.

Love this @EnglishHeritage 👏👏 inclusivity and equity at its finest. Majority of the benches at Scarborough castle were like this meaning wheelchair users can actually sit at the table and not end up shoved at the end. Love love love!
Great news for Scarborough! Named among the best tourist spots for electric vehicles! @DiscoverCoast thescarboroughnews.co.uk/rea…

The Arcadia stage at Glastonbury this weekend was a milestone... We powered the whole Arcadia field for the first time using the biggest festival batteries we’ve ever built. These batteries were specifically designed for outdoor events to replace diesel generators. This is going to be a game changer in how we power festivals...:)

Did you know that Muchelney Abbey in Somerset is the oldest building in use as a polling station? 🤔
Today people will be marking their ballot papers in the remaining medieval buildings of the Benedictine Monastery, originally founded in the 7th century.

D-Day The wide banks of the Derwent at Kirkham Priory were ideal for testing military vehicles and training troops. The river was used to assess the waterproofing capabilities of “wading” vehicles, and tanks were put through rigorous trials.

Thornborough Henges in North Yorkshire has been reunited 🎉
We’ve acquired the 3rd & final henge meaning that public access across the entirety of this major Neolithic site is guaranteed. It is a remarkable survivor from the prehistoric past & we can’t wait to share its stories.
It's great Whitby Abbey will have the first solar array on a major historical building in English Heritage! Combining historic and environmental sustainability, I'm very proud of all involved with this for making it happen.
