The History of York Village in Sierra Leone

From Freetown, the capital of Sierra Leone, to York Village is about twenty-three miles. This is a short distance. Yet it looks as if it is far away. As a result, it remains underdeveloped. York Village is capable of making useful contributions to the development of the country. The village produced men and women with a high standard of education. They have served the country well in their various fields of endeavours. Their children and grandchildren born in the village of York, Sierra Leone, are anxious to make their own contribution to the development of the village in particular and to the country in general. York Village in Sierra Leone has places for tourist attractions such as King Yard and the mysterious Foray Wharf, which are a must to see. It has agricultural plantations, cocoa, coffee, ginger, and the Gari industry. All needs development in order that York Village contributes meaningfully to develop the land that we love, our Sierra Leone.
