My Town - Selby







The town in which I was brought up and still live is called Selby in North Yorkshire. Its is 12 miles south of York and 21 miles to the east of Leeds.
The area I was raised and had my first adventures of life was on a tough working class housing estate nicknamed locally as "The Canyon".
The biggest feature in Selby is a 11th century Abbey which dominates the town.

Pictures :-
