St Helen's Church, Stonegate, York

The Punch Bowl is a pub in the city centre of York in England. The business was founded in 1675 as a coffeehouse, and it became associated with the city's Whigs, who preferred to drink punch. In 1761, it was licensed as a pub, and it became the headquarters of the York Races Committee, and was also popular with the bell ringers at York Minster. In reference to this, a bell clapper from the Minster has been used as a support in the rear bar since 1765.The building, on Stonegate, was largely rebuilt over the years, and then burned down in 1930. It was rebuilt in a Brewers' Tudor style, designed by Biscomb and Ferry for the Tadcaster Tower Brewery, with red herringbone brick at the front of the ground floor, and plasterwork above. The rear wing largely survives from the original building, as do three ground floor fireplaces.The building was grade II listed in 1954. In 2019, it was renovated, at which time, it was owned by Nicholson's.

13 Stonegate is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The oldest part of the building faces onto Stonegate. It was built in the 15th century as a three-storey, three-bay building. It may have been constructed by Thomas Doncaster, who leased the site from the Archdeacon of Richmond in 1423, but was not asked to pay rent, suggesting that he was improving the site. Both the upper floors were jettied, to Stonegate and to Little Stonegate, but the top floor was cut back, probably in the 18th century, in line with the first floor. The wing facing Little Stonegate was constructed as a separate house in about 1500, originally two storeys high, but with a third, jettied, storey added in the 17th century. In about 1600, the building facing Stonegate was extended to the rear, filling the angle between the two buildings. The internal arrangement was altered over the years, and by the 19th century, it formed three tenements, each with its own staircase. The current shopfronts on the ground floor date from about 1800. By 1954, the building had been united, when it was Grade II* listed. Since 1990, the building has housed the Original Teddy Bear Shop.The entire building is timber-framed, and externally plastered. There is a corner post, with a figurehead of a mermaid, dating to the 17th century. The roofs are covered with tiles and pantiles, and there are brick chimneystacks. Inside, there are several Georgian fittings, including a mid-18th century staircase, a Doric portico, and a marble fireplace. The Little Stonegate range has a steep staircase of similar date.

Mulberry Hall is a grade II* listed building on Stonegate, in the city centre of York, in England. Stonegate has been an important street for many centuries, and a Mulberry Hall existed on the site by 1372, housing the prebend of North Newbald. In the mid-15th century, the house was demolished and a new one built. Some modern sources give the date of rebuilding as 1434, and this date is now painted onto the building. The new structure was a two-storey timber-framed building, running from the corner of Stonegate and Little Stonegate, and stretching along Stonegate to cover three building plots.In about 1574, a third storey was added to the building. The whole structure was widened to the rear, by a few feet, and a new two-storey wing added to the rear of this, with a large kitchen on the ground floor. In the 18th-century, the part of the building next to Little Stonegate was rebuilt, and has since been a separate structure, 15 Stonegate. The remainder was divided into two tenements with shops below.In the 1950s, the whole remaining part of the house was converted into a single large shop, a china and glass retailer also named Mulberry Hall. This closed in 2016, since when it has been occupied by the first UK branch of Käthe Wohlfahrt, a year-round Christmas shop.Although the building has been heavily altered over the years, it retains a jettied front with exposed timber-framing, and original 16th- and 17th-century windows on the upper floors. One window frame was formerly inscribed with the date "1574", although this is no longer visible. To the rear, part of the structure is timber-framed and jettied, although the north-east bay was rebuilt in brick in about 1700. The first floor has extensive 17th-century wood panelling, and there is also a staircase dating from about 1700. The building is owned by the Sinclair family, a well known York family.

8 Stonegate is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The building lies on Stonegate. It was constructed in the early-17th century, on a narrow plot, a single bay wide and two bays deep. It is three storeys high with an attic, but in about 1830, the second and attic floors were lowered, to give more headroom in the attic. Most of the jettying was removed at this time, with just the first floor jetty retained, and new windows were installed, in a Gothic revival style. Later in the century, there was a small extension at the rear of the building, to house a new staircase.The building is timber-framed, with a stucco front and stone dressings, while the roof is covered with slates. The ground floor has a late 19th-century shopfront, with a large three-paned window and a glazed door. The first and second floors have narrow paired sash windows, while the attic has a pointed window. Inside, some timber framing is visible on the second floor, and there is a moulded ceiling beam on the first floor.The building was Grade II* listed in 1954. It is used as a shop, with accommodation above.

21 and 25 Stonegate is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The building's origins are in the 15th century, when a terrace of three timber-framed houses was constructed. This was probably originally five bays long, but the north-easternmost bay was later demolished. The houses were originally all two storeys high, with the upper floors jettied. In the late 16th century, an extra storey was added to the south-westernmost bay. The north-easternmost bay had a rear wing added in brick in about 1700, and in the 18th century, the second bay from the south-west also had a third storey added. In the late 19th century, brick extensions were added at the back of the remaining bays.From 1898 to 1902, the architect George Henry Walton worked from 21 Stonegate. The building was grade II* listed in 1954, and was restored in 1974.The front of the building is plastered, and the ground floor is occupied by shopfronts, some of which date from the 19th century. There are sash windows on the upper floors. The ground floor of one bay is now taken up with a wide passageway giving access to the York Medical Society building at 23 Stonegate. Inside, there is a historic staircase, and some cast iron fireplaces.

Ye Olde Starre Inne is a pub in the city centre of York, in England. The main block of the pub is a timber-framed structure, constructed in the mid-16th century, and a wing to its left was added in about 1600. By 1644, it was an inn named "The Starre", the buildings lying at the back of a coaching yard, off the north side of Stonegate. This makes it the pub in York which can demonstrate the earliest date for its licence. After the Battle of Marston Moor the inn was used as a hospital for wounded soldiers. In 1662, the pub was sold for £250, and in 1683, Edward Thompson inherited it. In 1733, the pub's landlord was Thomas Bulman, and he signed an agreement with the owners of two shops on Stonegate that he could attach a sign to their premises, to hang across the street. A sign advertising the pub has hung across the street ever since.The pub was extended in the early-18th century. In the 1840s, with the coming of the railway, the coaching yard was infilled with a new building, and the pub is now approached via a passageway underneath part of this building. Stables lay behind the pub and could be accessed from Duncombe Place, making the pub a popular location for visiting actors and circus performers.In the late-19th century, the pub was again extended, at which time, it was known as Boddy's Inn. Surviving internal features include an early-18th century staircase, some 17th-century panelling, and an assortment of benches, glass and panelling from the 19th-century refit. Its former bar screen, of stained glass, probably dates from the 1890s and is believed to have been designed by J. W. Knowles & Co. who were based at 35 Stonegate.In 1954, the pub was grade II listed.

Davygate is a major shopping street in the city centre of York, in England.

35 Stonegate is a grade II* listed building in the city centre of York, in England. The building lies on Stonegate, one of the most historic streets in the city of York. From the early 14th century, the site of the building was owned by the Prebend of Bramham. The front section of the current building was constructed in the 15th century, a timber-framed three-storey range facing the street. In the early-17th century, a separate two-storey timber-framed building was built at the rear of the plot, possibly to serve as workshops. In about 1700, a further block was built, in brick, joining the two existing ranges together. The front building was altered at the same time, with a new staircase inserted. In 1682, Francis Hildyard opened a bookshop in the building, known as "At the Sign of the Bible". From 1762 until 1811, it was a library and bookshop owned by John Todd. In 1759, he sold the first 200 copies of Laurence Sterne's novel, The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, now commemorated in a York Civic Trust plaque. The property continued to operate as a bookshop until 1872, when it was purchased by John Ward Knowles, a stained glass maker. In 1874, he completed a renovation of the building. This includes a decorative facade, loosely inspired by the Tudor style, the ground floor shopfront, a bay window in the rear section, and a large amount of stained glass. The stained glass business closed in 1931, but the Knowles family continued living in the building until the 1990s. In reference to the building's history, there is a sign above the door depicting a bible, with "HOLY BIBLE 1682" written on it. The first and second floors are both jettied, and both the 1682 date and the date of the 1874 restoration are inscribed on the front. Inside, the ground floor has 17th century panelling, and the staircase of about 1700 survives, as do many doors of similar date. There is an 18th century fireplace on the first floor. On the ground floor is a Gothic-style Victorian fireplace, and some ornate cupboards also dating from the restoration.In 1999, the building was purchased by astrologer Jonathan Cainer, who initially sold horoscopes from it. In 2004, he worked with Uri Geller to relaunch it as the Museum Of Psychic Experience. Derek Acorah filmed an episode of Ghost Towns Live in the building in 2006. The following year, Cainer transformed the building into Haunted, a haunted house attraction, which closed in 2014. In 2015, it became the first Oliver Bonas shop in the north of England.

The York County Savings Bank Building is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The York County Savings Bank was established in 1816, and in 1829 it purchased a large timber-framed house on St Helen's Square, from R. Cattle. Watson, Pritchett and Watson designed a new headquarters building for the bank on the site, which was completed in March 1830, at a total cost of £4,691.In the early 20th century, the position of the doors was moved, and the internal ground floor layout was altered.

It has one-and-a-half bays facing St Helen's Square, one curving around the corner, and three-and-a-half bays facing Blake Street. The extension has three storeys, but each is lower, allowing the roof level to remain the same, and continues a further three bays along Blake Street.The entrance is a double door on the curved bay, flanked by Doric columns, while the first floor has Composite columns and plain pilasters. The original doors have been converted to windows, while there is a secondary door at the far end of the extension.
