These photos aim to put the sensational into Selby as they chart a decade in the life of the town. They turn back the clock to the 1990s and feature a range of community events, local landmarks, shops, pubs and restaurants which are sure to evoke memories for a generation of people who called the town home back in the day. The wonderful collection of photos powered by the Yorkshire Evening Post archive also showcase memories from the surrounding villages. They include Hillam, Brayton, Wressle, Gateforth, Seaton Ross, Ryther, North Duffield, Ellerton, Cliffe, Cawood, Monk Fryston, Thorpe Willoughby and West Haddlesey.
