Sponsor a Stone – North Wall

Friends of York Walls continuing to work on improvements of Fishergate Postern Tower. One of the ways we are seeking to raise funds is by inviting the general public and local businesses to “Sponsor a Stone”. This major fund raising activity was officially launched in January 2012 when The Lord Mayor of York was presented with a certificate of ownership of the first stone.

The North Wall stones are numbered 46A to 82M.

1. To Sponsor a Stone – look at the photograph below for the North Wall and pick a free stone – i.e. one with a white label.  Click on the photo to view in high resolution.   NOTE that this photo will not be as “up to date” as the on-line availability grid below.

2. Check on the North Wall Sponsored Stones Grid below that the chosen stone is still un-allocated in the live database. GREEN stones are available.

4. If you are unable to complete all the required information online you can make a Postal Application. Please print out and complete the postal application form, and return it to the address specified on the form. A minimum donation of £20 is requested, but more would be greatly appreciated.

5. After your details have been entered into the on-line database and you have made your payment we will process your sponsorship.
