I'm pretty sure I have some comments and reviews about the Jorvik
center in this file, and perhaps some info on other interesting
SCA-type sites or things to do in the vicinity. Perhaps some of this
info would prove useful in addition to the other tourist brochures
and websites you may have already looked at:

Here are two more. It doesn't sound like you will be getting down to
London, but I'll mention it just in case. I also have a similar file
on Scotland, which is closer. And since Mistress Nicolaa was expressing
a similar viewpoint about "going home" as you just did, I thought this
one might also be of interest.
