York's Sporting Heritage

Working with York Library and Archive and York City Football Club, this project told the history of York City FC as part of the history of York itself.

A digital interactive installation was created, in collaboration with artist Stephen Lee Hodgkins. This included an interactive timeline, and games for younger people, as well as the history of other sport in York.

Documents related to York City FC were presented in the context of York's wider history. Here we see women working the trams as men had gone to fight in WWI, the fire at York Minster in 1983, and a map of zeppelin raids in 1916/17.
