This information plaque marks the site of the former Selby Customs House. It was demolished when Ousegate Mills – seen in the banner photograph above – was constructed. The Customs House operated in the first half of the 19th Century when Selby’s shipping trade was at its peak.
The photo shows former Chairman of Selby Civic Society, Philip Milsom, presenting the plaque to the manager of the former “Rooms” furniture store where the plaque was installed in 2005.
