Doesn’t Work

A good idea, but it doesn’t work. Click on the map & nothing happens. Very disappointed.

Well done!

I’ve only just downloaded the app and had a quick play, but I want to say how impressed I am that the East Riding Archives has created this. To have access to curated trails within the region is really useful, as is the map itself. Please keep developing it, keep adding to it - it will be a great resource for anyone with an interest in the area!

Pocket history

Adds an extra layer of interest when visiting somewhere new. I hope more images will get added over time and the developer resolves current bug with not being able to open multiple pictures for the same location. Great concept.
