Great talk at YAYAs on Wednesday last - all about Rev Charles Wellbeloved. I visited his grave at the Unitarian chapel in St Saviourgate some time ago. Church burials had been banned in York by that time but the Council agreed to allow this one. ⁦@RoyalHistSoc⁩ ⁦

I was stumbling around in the archives yesterday and came across this cheeky chap advertising distemper in York in 1925. I thought distemper was a disease that animals got! ⁦🤔
