Statue of Elizabeth II, York Minster

23 High Petergate is a grade I listed building in the city centre of York, in England. The house lies on High Petergate, one of the main streets in York. It was built in about 1779 at the end of a terrace, with a three-storey, four bay front of red brick, and side and back walls of orange brick. Its external appearance is largely original, including the doorway, windows, and ground floor shutters. The top of a drainpipe is inscribed "1780", while a similar one to the rear is marked "1779". To the side of the front door is a torch extinguisher, made of iron. The garden wall is also original. A carriage house was added in the late 19th-century, and there were further alterations to the building in the 20th-century. Inside the building, the main feature is an original staircase, rising through all the stories, with a serpentine balustrade, top lit by a glazed dome, surrounded by neoclassical plasterwork. This staircase is described by Nikolaus Pevsner as "exceptional".The building was grade I listed in 1954.

25–29 High Petergate is a grade II* listed terrace in the city centre of York, in England. The terrace lies on High Petergate, one of the main streets in York. 27 and 29 were designed by John and George Bowes and completed by 1701, while 25 was added in 1707. All three are three stories high, with an attic, and built of orange brick, on a stone plinth. Each is of a different width: 25 is five bays wide, 27 two bays, and 29 four bays. The centre bay of 25 is slightly forward of the rest of the facade.Internally, the original staircase of 29 High Petergate survives, while 25 has an early-19th century staircase, and 27 was entirely refitted in the 19th-century. 27 also has some stained glass, designed by Thomas Hodgson in 1801. The front doors all date from around 1800. At the back, all three have gables: curved on 25, and Dutch on 27 and 29.The three buildings are in commercial use. 25 High Petergate is the Guy Fawkes Hotel, which has a plaque installed by the York Dungeon claiming that Guy Fawkes was born on the site. However, there is no evidence of this, and the York Civic Trust instead argues that he was born on nearby Stonegate.

Purey-Cust Lodge boundary wall is an historic structure in the English city of York, North Yorkshire. A Grade II listed building, it dates to 1845.Originally the lodge, walls and gateways to the stone yard of York Minster, since around 1916 it has functioned as the entrance and boundary wall of Purey-Cust Lodge.The height of the wall varies from around 6 metres (20 ft) in its main section, up to around 8.5 metres (28 ft) at the rear of the lodge and down to around 4.5 metres (15 ft) for the section that runs along Precentor's Court.There are three gates, two of which feature nail-studded boarded gates; the third is an iron gate providing access to lodge's driveway. This gate is flanked by the coats of arms of St Peter and the Deanery of York.To the right of the iron gate, the wall is habitable. It features windows, at two levels, of single or paired square-headed lights with diamond lattice glazing. On the garden side, the lodge is of two low storeys. The ground-floor windows include one- and two-light small- and large-pane casements, as well as a 2x2 and a 2x6-pane Yorkshire sash. On the first floor, there are three 2x2s. The interior of the walls has not been inspected.

St Michael le Belfrey is an Anglican church in York, England. It is situated at the junction of High Petergate and Minster Yard, directly opposite York Minster, in the centre of the city.

2, 3, 4, and 4a Precentor's Court is an historic row of three buildings in the English city of York, North Yorkshire. Grade II* listed structures, standing on Precentor's Court, the buildings date to around 1710.Police constable William Gladin was living at number 2 in 1872, while cobbler William Bowes was at number 3.

Precentor's Court is an historic street in the English city of York. Although certainly in existence by 1313, the street does not appear on a map until 1610, and it is not given a name (Precentor's Lane) until 1722. It was given its current name exactly a century later.It is a cul-de-sac, running northwest from High Petergate at the western end of York Minster, in front of which the road apexes. A snickelway, known as Little Peculiar Lane, cuts through to the street, at its western end, from High Petergate. The frontages on High Petergate were developed with commercial properties for letting. A new lane, today's Precentor's Court, was developed, dividing these commercial rents from the canons' residences to the rear.Around 1540, the marble and stone bases of two shrines in the Minster were dismantled and buried in what is now Precentor's Court. One was later exhumed during construction work and is now preserved in the Yorkshire Museum.The street was home to St Stephen's orphanage in the 1870s.

1 Minster Gates and 38 High Petergate is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The building was constructed in about 1500, at one of the most prestigious locations in the city, the junction of High Petergate and Minster Gates. It was originally a three-storey timber-framed, jettied house, with a fourth storey added in the late 16th century. In the late 18th century, the facades on both streets were rebuilt in brick. In 1801, the house was split into two properties, and the ground floor was converted into retail space, with shop windows added. This work was probably undertaken for John Wostenholme, who ran a bookshop out of the building, and a statue of Minerva survives at the corner of the building, constructed to advertise his business. Its restoration was funded by York Civic Trust. The building has been grade II* listed since 1954. 1 Minster Gates is occupied by Shared Earth, an ethical trade shop founded in 1986. It employs prisoners nearing the end of their sentences, but was in the news in 2024 after one ex-offender employed by the business stole £17,000 of its money. Since 1976, 38 High Petergate has been the Japanese Print Shop, selling Japanese woodblock prints. The building has a two-bay front on Minster Gates, and a seven-bay front on High Petergate. Some timber-framing remains, although the external walls are now in brown brick, while the roof is pantiled. There are two doors to Minster Gates, one now blocked, and one 28-pane window, with a fanlight above. To High Petergate, four similar windows flank a door. Two of the fanlights are inscribed: "Stationery" and "Prints". The statue of Minerva shows her reclining on a pile of books. The three leftmost bays have now been divided into two further shops, each with a separate front. Inside, there is an altered 18th century straight staircase from the ground floor to the first, and a winding staircase from there up to the third floor. There is a second 18th century staircase at the rear of the building. The ground floor shop entered from Minster Gates has three early doorframes, and a second room has a shallow dome. The first floor room of 38 Petergate has an old fireplace, and a room entirely panelled in early 17th century work.

33–35 High Petergate is a Mediaeval building in the city centre of York, in England. The oldest part of the building was constructed in the 14th century as part of a terrace facing Stonegate, this part now known as 60 Stonegate. The main part of the building, two houses now numbered 33 and 35 High Petergate, is timber framed and was originally of two jettied storeys, built at an unknown date. Around 1600, a jettied second floor and attic were added, and 60 Stonegate was combined with the High Petergate row. At the corner of the building is a dragon post inscribed ":ANNO:DO:1646".In the early-18th century, an extension was added at the rear of the building, doubling its depth. 33 Petergate was altered in early 19th century, and a small brick-built rear wing was added. Later in the century, shop fronts were inserted at ground level, and these survive. Inside, there are several early doors and the upper part of the staircase in 35 is also early, while the lower part is 18th century. The staircase in 33 is early 19th century.The building was grade II* listed in 1954. It is currently divided into two shops, with flats above.

48 and 50 Stonegate is a historic building in the city centre of York, in England. The timber framed building lies on the north side of Stonegate. It was built in about 1600, and was altered in the 19th century, when two shopfronts were inserted on the ground floor, the windows were changed, and the interior was rearranged. The building was Grade II* listed in 1954. Since 2009, part of the building has been the House of the Trembling Madness pub and shop, which has won an award as the UK's leading independent beer retailer. The three-storey building is rendered and painted at the front. The shopfronts are constructed of timber, and there is a pantile roof and brick chimneystacks. Both storeys are jettied at the front, and the upper floors each have two sash windows. The ground floor has paired doorways in the centre, both having fanlights. The right-hand side of the building faces onto a snickelway, with a further door and windows. The Norman House is at the rear. Inside, some historic fireplaces survive, including one from about 1700. There is an early staircase from the first to the second floor of number 50, and an 18th-century door in its attic.

54, 56, and 58 Stonegate is a grade II* listed mediaeval terrace in the city centre of York, in England. The building was constructed in the early 14th century, on the north-west side of Stonegate, one of the city's most important streets. The site had been owned by the Vicars Choral since 1278, and they built the three-storey terrace, originally consisting of up to seven tenements. In 1415, it was described as a "site with shops built on it and chambers above at the corner of Stonegate opposite the entrance of the Minster", and the profits from its rents were devoted to St Andrew's Chantry at York Minster.In 1549, the chantries were dissolved, and the terrace was sold, but the Vicars Choral later re-acquired it. The buildings have been repeatedly altered, and the divisions between the properties now do not line up with the original divisions, particularly on the upper floors. In the 17th century, a panelled room was created on the first floor of 58 Stonegate, which survives. Around 1646, the upper floors of the two north-east bays were rebuilt, and that section of the terrace was connected with neighbouring properties on High Petergate, that building now being listed separately from the remainder of the terrace.The building is timber-framed, with the jettied front to Stonegate being plastered over. The windows all date from the 18th and 19th centuries, and the ground floor fronts have been replaced by 19th-century shop fronts, although a 17th-century door to 58 survives.

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.

Fenton House is an historic building in the English city of York, North Yorkshire. It is a Grade II* listed structure, standing at 9 Precentor's Court. The house dates to 1680, although a mediaeval wall was discovered when floor repairs took place. A new frontage was installed on the house around 1705, and the rear elevation was also rebuilt in the 18th century, although three original attic windows survive. The house was largely refurbished in the 19th century, but some original panelling and the balustrade of the staircase of 1680 survive.The building has a square plan, with four rooms on each of its two storeys. There are also attics and a basement. It is built of brick.Looking directly down Precentor's Court, from its western end, to York Minster, the building was formerly the prebendal house of Cave and, later, Fenton. It stands perpendicular to 10 Precentor's Court at the western end of the street. In 2013, the eight-bedroom home was put on the market for £1.1 million.
