This year around 3500 people attended Scarborough Heritage Open Days 2011 events which were held all over the town. Many of the properties which were open for free are listed buildings and we hope that it helps the Civic Society to achieve its aim to raise public awareness of our architectural heritage and gather more support for the protection of these architectural gems.
To quote from a comment received from a visitor: “A lot of effort went into the arrangements and it was well worth our coming”
Many thanks to everyone involved in making this so successful.
Heritage Open Days
aims to raise
public awareness of our architectural, built, historical or cultural heritage.
Buildings across the country that are either not usually open to the public or
that usually charge admission will open for free.
