Bootham School

47 Bootham is a historic building on Bootham, a street leading north from the city centre of York in England. The house was commissioned by Mary Thompson, the widow of Edward Thompson. It was designed by John Carr, and was completed in 1753. After Thompson's death, the house was purchased by Leonard Pickard, and it remained in his family until it was purchased by Bootham School, becoming part of the school premises. In the 19th century, the rear bay window was heightened to three storeys, and the second floor was partly remodelled. The building was grade II* listed in 1954. The house is built of brick, with painted stone dressings, and a slate roof. It is three storeys high with a basement, and four bays wide. There are two stucco bands between the ground and first floors. The windows are sashes, and those on the ground floor have shutters. The front door is in the left bay, and it has a small window above, an architrave and a cornice. There is an original lead drainpipe, with a monogram, probably the initials of Thompson. The chimney is central in the building. The house retains most of its original fittings, including the cornices and architraves. The former dining room has panelling above a dado rail, a decorative frieze above the door, and an elaborate fireplace surround. The main staircase is original, and it has a Rococo ceiling above, the design incorporating foliage, the work described by Nikolaus Pevsner as "excellent". The saloon, at the front of the first floor, has an ornate fireplace with an overmantel depicting fruit, flowers and foliage. The servants' staircase is also original, and on the second floor, the queen post roof structure is visible.

49 Bootham is a historic building on Bootham, a street leading north from the city centre of York in England. The building was constructed in the late 17th century, as two semi-detached houses, each two storeys high, with an attic. In about 1738, the houses were combined, an extra storey being added to the front section, and the whole building refronted. The doorway was altered in the late 18th century, around the time that the house was sold to Richard Vanden-Bempde-Johnstone. The house was purchased by Bootham School in 1846, becoming the home of the headmaster. From 1875 to 1882, Joseph Rowntree rented it from the school as his house, something commemorated by a plaque. 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. The doorway has a fanlight and a doorcase with fluted pilasters, while the windows are sashes. There is a basement, enclosed by iron railings. Inside, many fittings date from 1738, including panelling, fireplaces, and the main staircase. The cornice and some moulded ceiling beams survive from the 17th century.

51 Bootham is a historic building on Bootham, a street leading north from the city centre of York in England. The building was designed by Peter Atkinson for Richard Vanden-Bempde-Johnstone and was completed in or shortly after 1804. It was initially known as "Bootham House". In 1846, Bootham School purchased and relocated to the building. The school redesigned the rear wing and extended it. The rearmost part of the building was destroyed in a fire in 1899. In about 1902, it was replaced by a science block (now the John Bright Library) and a gymnasium, designed by Fred Rowntree and W. H. Thorp in the arts and crafts style. In about 1956, the block was altered by Colin Rowntree, work including dividing the gymnasium into classrooms. The building was grade II* listed in 1954. The front to Bootham is of brick with stone dressings and a slate roof. It is three storeys high, with attics and a basement, and is five bays wide. There are sash windows, becoming less elaborate with each storey, and three dormer windows in the attic. At first floor level there is an iron balcony running the whole width of the building. The door has a fanlight and a Doric portico. The 1902 extension is built of red brick with terracotta dressings.

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.

53 and 55 Bootham is a historic building on Bootham, immediately north of the city centre of York, in England. The building was constructed as a single house in about 1765, probably to a design by John Carr. In about 1770, it was divided to form a pair of houses. Early in the 19th century, 55 Bootham was extended to the left. In 1923, the house was purchased by Bootham School, which came to use it as offices. The building was Grade II* listed in 1954.The building is constructed of brick, with stone and stucco dressings, and a slate roof. The main part of the front is symmetrical, with three main storeys, an attic and a cellar, and it is five bays wide. The brickwork of the top floor is different to that of the lower floors, suggesting that it may be a later addition. A porch in a Greek Doric style covers the twin entrance doors, which each lead into an entrance hall, which widens to accommodate a staircase; that in 53 Bootham has been removed, but the original staircase in 55 Bootham survives. Much of the original cornice survives, as does one fireplace. The extension has an additional external door, which leads to a passageway.

The building was constructed as a house, with work starting in 1840, and completed in 1845. It was built for Thomas Walker, a local solicitor, at the same time as its similar neighbour, 54 Bootham. Its original kitchen was in the basement, but a new kitchen was added at the rear soon after the building was constructed.In the 20th century, the building was converted to offices, and for many years it served as the headquarters of the Flaxton Rural District, then of the Ryedale district, also housing its council chamber. It was later taken over by York City Council, to house its office for births, deaths and marriages. In 2003, it was purchased by the York Conservation Trust and renovated, to become the city's register office. A new extension was added at the rear, to serve as a wedding room, with French doors leading into the newly landscaped garden, designed to act as a backdrop for wedding photography. The upper floors are leased out, separately from the ground, as offices. The three-storey building is built of brick, broadly in the typical style of a Victoria villa. There are single-storey wings to the left and right of the building, the one to the left containing a carriage entrance. Its main entrance is under a porch, in the Tuscan order, which supports a balcony, with an iron balustrade manufactured by the local John Walker foundry.

The Minster Inn is a pub on Marygate, immediately north of the city centre of York, in England. The pub was first mentioned in 1823, at which time it was located in a building on the south-east side of Marygate. Although it was later renamed the Gardener's Arms, in the mid-1880s, it became the Minster Inn again. By 1902, it was owned by the Tadcaster Tower Brewery, which decided to relocate it to a new building, opposite the original site, on the north-west side of the street. The new building was designed by Samuel Needham, and it opened in 1903. It is a small pub, based around a through corridor, and with four equally sized rooms, two on each side of the corridor. Although the room at the rear right is a later conversion, the original layout otherwise survives, as do the original windows, doors and tiles. The two left-hand rooms retain their original bench seating and bell-pushes, originally used to call for service. The Campaign for Real Ale describes the pub as having "rare intactness" for its date, and it appears on the organisation's Yorkshire Regional Inventory of Historial Pub Interiors. In 2009, it submitted the pub for listing, but this was not achieved. The Yorkshire Post notes that it has a fire in winter, and a small courtyard.
