Photo of the Month: February

Slingsby 'Castle' covered with snow | Photograph by David Thornley

The first snow fall of 2012 occurred in Slingsby last weekend, so it seems right to have a snowy photograph of one of Slingsby’s most intriguing buildings, beautifully captured by David Thornley, back in December 2009.

Slingsby Castle, as it is known locally, isn’t actually a castle but the ruins of a Jacobean mansion or manor house that was never completed due to the first English Civil War of 1642-1646.

More information on Slingsby Castle can be found here.
