Hide AdA spokesperson from Historic England said: “Where is it that makes your heart sing, or stops you in your tracks, every time?
“Whether a fleeting romance or a long-held affection, this week Historic England wants the public to share photos, memories and odes to the #buildingsyoulove on social media and celebrate the wonderful, distinct places across the country that we hold dear.
“Maybe the decorative Victorian Shopping Quarter in Leeds is more your cup of tea, or the cobbled streets of Haworth or the newly restored Piece Hall in Halifax.
“Yorkshire is full of fascinating buildings and places sure to tug at your heartstrings.”
