The A19 at Mount Grace Priory, where the gap in the central reservation has now been closed and, inset, Sonia Rose, who died in a crash there in 2016 THE family of a former York teacher who died when a van veered through a space in a dual carriageway barrier and crashed into her car has told of their relief that the gap has finally been closed. Former Fulford School teacher Sonia Rose was killed, aged 83, in the crash on the A19 at Mount Grace Priory, north of Thirsk, in 2016. An inquest in 2017 heard that a van travelling south hit the central reservation barrier, causing it to tip on to two wheels and pass through a gap into the northbound carriageway near Northallerton.

North-East days out to fill the sunny Easter weekend as lockdown eases WITH lockdown easing as Easter holidays begin, here are some ideas for days out in the North-East and North Yorkshire. After months of ups, downs and anticipation, our list of daily activities can finally extend beyond going for a walk in the park or essential shopping. As we edge towards normality on the roadmap to recovery, a selection of outdoor attractions reopened their doors on March 29 when the Stay at Hone order came to an end. You must, however, stay local. English Heritage will be allowing the public to visit more than 50 of their historic sites across the country, all closed since December.
