Green Corridors: Tune into Nature, Nature and Time

Green Corridors: Tune into Nature Nature and Time, Hosted by Beki & GillianStep back in time with us through the ancient city of York, where history and nature converge. In this episode, we explore how York’s medieval city walls and historic churches have shaped the way people connect with the natural world.From the Roman foundations camouflaged in the medieval ramparts to Victorian restorations, York’s walls are not just historic structures—they’ve always bordered and blended with green landscapes, offering both protection and connection. Projects like the “York Walls in Bloom” initiative transform these ramparts into biodiverse corridors, supporting bees, butterflies, and wildflowers on ancient stoneWe’re joined by Liam Dennis from City of York Council, and Andrew Nichols from Holy Trinity Church, both passionate about York’s heritage and ecology. Together we’ll uncover how these historic monuments continue to connect us to the natural world and ask: how can we carry forward this legacy of architecture intertwined with nature into the future?Explore with us the evolving relationship between history, landscape, and the spaces we inhabit.
