Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
A city where ancient walls surround incredible local businesses, attractions, shops, accommodation and eateries, with exciting events every day and inspiring festivals every month of the year.
This festive season, York’s Christmas Festival is the perfect opportunity to support local businesses while soaking up the city’s magical atmosphere.

Getting here couldn’t be easier with York Park & Ride - park for free and enjoy a sustainable, great-value journey straight into the city centre.
