Oficinas de alquiler de autos de Enterprise Wakefield

Wakefield, central to West Yorkshire, is a city whose history predates medieval times. Indeed, by the Georgian period, it had become prosperous and its Georgian heritage can still be seen in the architecture today. Wakefield's traditional industries of corn, cotton production, textiles and mining have been in decline for many years and employment now centers around retail, light engineering, production and packaging. Coca-Cola has a large plant just outside the city. As cities go, Wakefield is small and only acquired city status in the middle of the 19th century, when the parish church became a cathedral. Enterprise has an office at 105-169 Dewsbury Road, Wakefield, about a mile outside the town center. Wakefield is a great destination because the city is relatively close to anywhere in Yorkshire you might like to go.

Attractions In Wakefield

The Hepworth Gallery, which opened in May 2011, attracts art lovers from all over the county to view exhibitions of major contemporary artists. It takes its name from the sculptor, Dame Barbra Hepworth, who was born and grew up in a house on Batley Road, which today bears a blue commemoration plaque. Trinity Walk shopping center is built on the site of the old bus station, opened in 2011 to complement the Ridings, one of the first indoor shopping malls in the country. The city also has a number of retail parks situated just outside the center. The cathedral church of All Saints dates back to the 12th century and has just undergone extensive restoration at a cost of £2.5 million, including the creation of open spaces for worship and other public events. During the summer, its towers become home to a pair of Red Kites, for those lucky enough to see them. Wakefield may be a small city, but there is lots to see and do and renting a vehicle for your Wakefield trip enables you to both experience the city and travel further afield.
