Do any guides mention the Wars of the Roses during their tours? Recently, a visitor asked me why I had not mentioned it. My response was that to ordinary York people it had little daily impact – maybe apart from the changing heads dispayed on the city entrances. Was I right?
I would welcome views on this.

As the war was between the House of York and the House of Lancaster rather than the towns of Lancaster and York I tend to not mention it, unless asked specifically about it.
I think that many associate it with the two towns…..
