Players can swap the streets of London for landmarks in the north as the Yorkshire Dales edition of Monopoly has launched. The board, which was launched on Tuesday , is themed in sets from tourism to heritage, leisure to entertainment, train stations to the great outdoors, and more to reflect the region. When news of the game was announced last year, the public was invited to send in suggestions for landmarks and organisations to be featured in the game.
As Stump Cross Caverns was selected, the owner, Lisa Bowerman aka Cavewomen, even celebrated with Mr Monopoly. In addition to the changes in properties, all the tokens have been customised to replace the traditional Monopoly counters with a Craven Ram, a miniature of a dry stone wall, a slab of Wensleydale cheese, a pair of walking boots, a cricket bat, and a bicycle.
