England's smallest glazed window

You'll find yourself squinting at St Mary's Church in Beverley, trying to spot what claims to be England's tiniest glazed window. It's genuinely tiny - more postage stamp than window - and tucked away in the stonework in a way that makes you wonder if the medieval builders were having a laugh. The window measures just a few inches across, which seems almost perverse given the soaring Gothic architecture surrounding it. Whether it was a mistake, a joke, or served some obscure liturgical purpose, nobody's quite sure, and that's rather part of its charm.

It's not the sort of attraction that'll eat up your afternoon. You'll walk around the church, locate the window, have a moment of 'oh right, that's it then', and move on. But Beverley itself is worth lingering in - the Minster is genuinely spectacular, and the town centre has proper character without feeling touristy. If you're staying at Manor Farm Camping nearby, the church makes for a pleasant morning wander before heading into the town proper. History buffs and anyone who gets a kick out of oddities will appreciate the hunt. Families with small children might lose patience waiting for their turn to peer at it, but it's free and requires no planning, so it slots neatly into a wider East Yorkshire itinerary. The real draw here is the story you'll be able to tell afterwards - not the window itself.
