Since September 2024 we have been working with second-year undergraduate students from the Department of History at University of York, as part of their Public History Project module. Working in groups, the students have been delving into the archives of the Company of Merchant Adventurers of the City of York, and have written short blog posts and creative outputs based on the collections.

We are incredibly grateful to these students for their hard work in helping us uncover new stories from the archives. Click on the links below to explore their stories.
