Our ghost story competition has prompted a great response, so much so that we've decided the entries we have been publishing each month in Yorkshire Ridings magazine deserve an even wider audience here on the web.  So - are you sitting comfortably? Then we'll begin...with The Lady Vanishes by Rosy Daley.

With new film and television adaptations of Charlotte Bronte's 'Jane Eyre' and Emily Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights' in production, Peter Riley argues that it was Anne Bronte who could have become the greatest of all the literary sisters.

SHE is the least known of the famous Brontë sisters, but her literary legacy tells us that, had she lived,  she would have eclipsed her siblings  and perhaps gone on to write top class novels for decades.

On the historic street of Goodramgate in York, lie the cultural delights of Artestee. Newly refurbished, Artestee is a prime location for local artists to display their work. With its vibrant window displays and light, chic interior, it is an eye catching gallery, sharply contrasting and complimenting the ancient city walls.

Estee Roberts, a young entrepreneur and artist from York, opened the gallery as a way of displaying her own imprint artwork and designs, as well as those of her friends and other local artists. There is an array of styles of art work as well as sculpture, soft furnishings, greeting cards, jewellery and glassware on display, all available for purchase. Whilst browsing the gallery and taking in the artistic delights, visitors can enjoy refreshments in the café, including handmade cakes and biscuits, sandwiches, exotic teas and coffee.
