Time: 11.30am - 1pm

Meet 11.30 am at St Mary’s Priory Church, 18 Town St, Old Malton, Malton YO17 7HB.

Malton Museum offers an interesting variety of public guided walking tours around the town’s historic centre.

The layout of Malton town centre has changed very little since medieval times, but its early origins are now well concealed behind later Georgian and Victorian buildings. St Mary’s Priory Church in Old Malton is the largest remaining visible evidence of the area’s flourishing medieval past. Join us there for an illustrated talk in which we reveal the hidden history of the origins of both Old and New Malton. This will be followed by a guided look at key features inside the church and in the former priory grounds by the river.

Tour length – 1.5 hours approx. We recommend wearing sensible footwear and bringing a raincoat). We use audio headsets to ensure everyone can hear the guides when the town is busy.  The maximum size of a group is 20.

Cost £10.00 per person, includes an information pack.
