The Holgate Road carriage works was a railway carriage manufacturing factory in the Holgate area of York, England. The factory began production in 1884 as a planned expansion and replacement of the North Eastern Railway's Queen Street site; the works was substantially expanded in 1897–1900, and saw further modernisations through the 20th century. The works passed to the ownership of the London and North Eastern Railway (1923); British Railways (1948); British Rail Engineering Limited, known as BREL York (1970); and privatised and acquired by ABB in 1989 (ABB York). The works closed in 1996, due to lack of orders caused by uncertainty in the post-privatisation of British Rail period. Thrall Car Manufacturing Company used the works to manufacture freight wagons for English Welsh and Scottish Railway from 1998 to 2002, after which the factory closed again. As of 2009, the site is in maintenance related rail use by Network Rail as their Rail Fleet Engineering Centre (RFEC). The site is used by Network Rail, and various rail sub-contractors to maintain Network Rails own fleet of maintenance rail vehicles. As a consequence of manufacturing work using asbestos during the 20th century more than a hundred people associated from the works have died from illness caused by exposure to the material, with asbestos related illnesses still occurring and causing death into the 21st century.

The Fox is a pub in Holgate, York, England. The pub was purpose-built in 1878, replacing an earlier pub on the site. The York Carriage Works were built nearby a few years later, and it long provided the main source of patrons for the business. It was long owned by Tetley's Brewery. In 1985, it was restored under the architect George Williamson, and was then branded as a Tetley's Heritage Pub. It was Grade II listed in 1994, following a study by the Campaign for Real Ale. The pub was later sold to Punch Taverns, but closed in 2013 after the rent was increased. A proposal to bring the pub into community ownership suggested opening a post office in the building and selling bacon sandwiches during the day, but this was not taken forward. Instead, it was leased to the Ossett Brewery, which removed the kitchen and children's play area, and redecorated throughout. Each of the four rooms has a different theme: foxes, Holgate, travel, and railways. One room aims to replicate the feel of a railway carriage. On opening, the pub offered nine cask ales, including several from Ossett. By 2022, the pub was listed in the Good Beer Guide. The two-storey building is built of brick, and is three bays wide. A panel in the centre reads "THE FOX INN REBUILT 1878". The main entrance is through a brick porch, while a secondary entrance, formerly for off-sales, is now blocked. Inside, many original fittings survive, including the bar, benches, fireplaces, corridor hatch, and staircase. It is listed on Camra's Yorkshire Regional Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors.

The York Cold War Bunker is a two-storey, semi-subterranean, Cold War bunker in the Holgate area of York, England, built in 1961 to monitor nuclear explosions and fallout in Yorkshire, in the event of nuclear war. One of about 30 around the United Kingdom, the building was used throughout its operational existence as the regional headquarters and control centre for the Royal Observer Corps's No. 20 Group YORK between 1961 and 1991. It has become an English Heritage Scheduled Monument and was opened in 2006 by English Heritage as a tourist attraction. During its Cold War operational period, the building could have supported 60 local volunteer members of the Royal Observer Corps, inclusive of a ten-man United Kingdom Warning and Monitoring Organisation scientific warning team. They would have collated details of nuclear bombs exploded within the UK and tracked radioactive fallout across the Yorkshire region, warning the public of its approach. This example of an ROC control building is the only one that is preserved in its operational condition. The others stand derelict or have either been demolished or sold. A few have been converted to other uses, like No. 16 Group Shrewsbury that is now a veterinary clinic, another is a recording studio, two are satellite and communications control centres, and one is a solicitor's file storage facility. The fully restored building contains air filtration and generating plant, kitchen and canteen, dormitories, radio and landline communication equipment and specialist 1980s computers and a fully equipped operations room with vertical illuminated perspex maps.
