Severus Hill is up for sale. The ward Councillors have negotiated with Yorkshire Water to delay the sale – but only for the time being.
Join us on 18th November 3.30-5pm to explore Severus Hill in more depth and develop ideas for its future.
We’ll explore the history of Severus Hill - from the cremation of Emperor Severus to the reservoir that was created in late 19th century. We also will pool our local knowledge and memories of Severus Hill.
We’ll also share what we collectively know about the wildlife and ecology of Severus Hill – bring your bird sightings with you!
The final part of the session will explore the future of Severus Hill – what would you like to see happen?
This event is co-organised by the Holgate Ward Councillors, Friends of Severus Hill, YoCo: York Central Co-Owned and York Civic Trust.
