Wandesford House is an eighteenth-century almshouse in the centre of York, England, one of twelve still-functioning almshouses in the city, and the oldest still in its original building. Built in 1739 and opened in 1743, the house is an important example of the classical style in the city. Like many historic almshouses, it was referred to as a hospital before that term became chiefly associated with medical establishments. The almshouse lies a few yards outside the city walls on the north-west side of Bootham behind its front garden and between houses of later date. Inside are twelve flats intended for single Christian women, who are in hardship, need or distress, and over 50 years of age. Wandesford House is listed by Historic England as a Grade II* listed building and is owned and run by Mary Wandesford's Charity (the Wandesford Trust; charity reg. 251379). The archives of the Charity are held at the Borthwick Institute for Archives, University of York.

In about 1738, the houses were combined, an extra storey being added to the front section, and the whole building refronted.

The house was grade II* listed in 1954, and its rear section was rebuilt in 1965. It remains part of Bootham School. The building is constructed of brick, with painted stone dressings and a slate roof. It is three storeys high, and four bays wide, the front including quoins and two bands separating the storeys.

York Library (York Explore Library and Archive) is situated in Museum Street, York, England. It became a Grade II listed building in 1997.York's first subscription library opened in 1794, but it was only in 1893 that the city's first public library was opened in Clifford Street by the then Duke and Duchess of York, in a building formerly occupied by the Institute of Popular Science and Literature. This was the period when free public libraries were supplanting subscription libraries, and the establishment of York's public library was the city's way of marking Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. In 1917 the public library was merged with York Subscription Library. The present library building on Museum Street was designed by Walter Brierley and opened in 1927. Since then, there have been a number of extensions to the building, most recently in 2014, when the library became home to the City Archives.
