Fishergate Postern Tower and the 2026 Visitor Experience Survey in York
Visitors heading to historic landmarks around York can currently share their feedback through a new initiative evaluating how people experience the city's ancient fortifications.
The City of York Council has launched a review focusing on the visitor journey along the Walls of York. The project is being driven by two interns from York St John University, Alyesha Marshall and Jules Hiraeth, who have designed a dedicated feedback questionnaire to gather public insights.
Anyone who has recently explored the area or plans to visit local heritage sites can submit their feedback directly by taking part in the visitor survey. Input collected from the public will help inform how authorities understand and manage visitor interactions with these historic structures moving forward.
Engaging with York’s Medieval Heritage
For those exploring historic sites like Fishergate Postern Tower—a preserved medieval structure managed by the Friends of York Walls—community initiatives and public engagement play a vital role in keeping local heritage accessible. Whether you are stepping inside the tower on a special opening day or simply walking the ancient circuit, sharing your perspective helps shape the future of local culture management.
