The Wakefield Civic Society Blue Plaque Guided Walk
Meet outside the Town Hall,, Wood Street, Wakefield, West Yorkshire, WF1 2HQ
Join us for this free guided walk to learn something of the Society's blue plaque collection. Hear about the history of some of Wakefield's buildings and the people associated with them.
The walk, which will be at a gentle pace, will cover part of the Society's growing collection of blue plaques and will be based on the Society's new blue plaque book, published in 2023 (front cover illustrated above). A free copy of the book, produced with funding support from Wakefield Council, will be given to each person taking part.
