Geocache Description:

Presumably named after the City of York, York Road in Cromer is the only road in this seaside resort named after an English city!    This is a simple cache and dash with a twist which will hopefully make you smile. 




York Road Facts:

York Road is a football stadium in Maindenhead and is the home ground of Maidenhead United and Hayes and Yeading &Yeading United.  It is acknowledged by the FA and  to be the oldest continuously-used senior association football ground in the world by the same club, having been home to the club since 1871.

York Road is a railway depot in Belfast, Northern Ireland and  originally one of the city's main stations, it has been replaced by Yorkgate Station.

York Road is a disused station on the London Underground, located between King's Cross and Caledonian Road, with its entrance at the corner of York Road (now York Way) and Bingfield Street. It opened on 15 December 1906 and was one of the original stations on the Great Northern, Piccadilly and Brompton Railway (GNP&BR), the precursor to today's Piccadilly line.

A weekly market was held on York Street in Southend but demolition of the historic market began on 23 April 2010 and the site became a car park. A temporary market was held there every Friday until 2012 after the closure of the former Southend market at the rear of the Odeon.

York Road is the 24th most commonly named road in England so it’s no surprise that there is one in Cromer!  High Street being the most common followed by Station Road in second place.

Ermine Street is the name of a major Roman road in England that ran from London (Londinium) to Lincoln (Lindum Colonia) and York (Eboracum).
