Our Lady's Row.
This is the oldest #timberframed building in York (1316) and the #architecturaldetails are named medieval jettied houses due to the floor above protruding from the ground floor.
The Old Gates.
If there is one city where you want it misty with rain it would have to be in York in Britain. Old cobblestones and old gates look better with rain. This picture taken by me in the #gapyear1987 with a picture of the gate that is the entrance to the Holy Trinity Church.
Holy Trinity, Micklegate, York.
Grade l listed.
North Door entrance.
A church has stood on this site for over 900 years. The first was reduced to rubble during the Norman Conquest of 1066. French monks rebuilt the church and established a Benedictine priory here in 1098. Disaster struck when a fire that raged through York in 1137 damaged the church. The priory lost its lands and buildings during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1536, but was allowed to continue as a parish church. The stocks from the churchyard dating from the 18th century have been restored and are now on display as part of the Monks of Micklegate exhibition inside the church. A replica of the stocks can be seen as you enter the churchyard.

Named as pro-cathedral with arrival of Bishop Short 1847, consecrated Jul 1848. New schoolroom opened Sep 1887. Worship in schoolroom while church enlarged & renovated 1888-89, architect Edward John Woods, walls raised 4-5 feet, tower also raised, new stone darker than original limestone from quarry behind Government House.
The exterior walls of Holy Trinity Church are faced with yellow ashlar; squared stone blocks of varying sizes which have been sawn or hewn to a smooth face and joined together to conceal the coarser load-bearing material behind.
There is evidence of “patching” at various points in the Church's history where weathering has taken its toll and necessitated the replacement of some of the original blocks.
