THE Kirkbymoorside Environment Group has published the sixth edition of its Kirkbymoorside Shopping Guide.

The publication is an "exhaustive" street-by-street guide to the goods and services available in the town.

June Emerson, of the environment group, said: “The spirit behind the guide is to show that we appreciate and love our high street, and the personal service it offers. There are so few towns left in the UK which can offer so much.”

As the guide makes it easy to find which shops sell a huge variety of goods, she added that it is much quicker than looking up things up on your phone.

The cost of the guide has been assisted by North Yorkshire County Council, Kirkbymoorside Town Council and Moors Gateway Rotary.
