St Peter's School, York

Queen Anne Grammar School for Girls was a single-gender female state grammar school in the city of York, England. It began in 1906 as the Municipal Secondary School for Girls and was based in Brook Street. At the end of 1909 the pupils were transferred to a new 5+1⁄2-acre site in Clifton. The school's name was changed in 1920 and Queen Anne was chosen as it was situated on Queen Anne's Road. The school emblem was a sphinx underneath which was a furled ribbon reading the school motto Quod Potui Perfeci.The school became a co-educational comprehensive in 1985. It closed in June 2000 and in 2001 St Olave's School moved to the site.

The Old Manor House, also known as Nell Gywnne's House, is a historic building in the Clifton area of York in England. Two timber-framed tenement buildings, each of two storeys, were built on the site at some point between the 14th and 16th centuries. In the late 17th century, it was largely rebuilt in brick, in the artisan mannerist style. The rebuilding may have been due to damage during the Siege of York. A local legend claims that, when Charles II of England visited York, Nell Gwynne stayed in the house.By the 19th century, the building housed working-class families in rooms which had been subdivided. At the start of the 20th century, the eastern part of the building was a tobacconist and barbers shop. In the 1930s, the building was converted into a single house, and the roof was entirely replaced. The house was grade II* listed in 1954. In 1962, it was restored and partly rebuilt, the new work include the south-east wall and the window openings in the rear wall. The York Civic Trust purchased the building in 1985, but sold it as a private house in the early 21st century. In 2020, the house was placed on the market for £1.29 million.The building is two storeys high, with an attic above. There are two main gables on the front to the street named Clifton, and to their left, a smaller gable over the porch. Above ground floor level, the brickwork has been laid in an approximation of larger stone blocks.Inside the building, most of the ceiling beams and joists are 16th century. The chimney is in the centre of the building, and it has 17th century fireplaces. The entrance door is also 17th century, but has been moved from its original doorway. One room has an 18th-century fitted cupboard. There is a cellar under part of the house, reached down a 17th century flight of stairs.

A piece of bone inscribed with the words, "Hail, sister may you live in God" was found with her skeleton.

Bootham Lodge is a historic building, lying on Bootham, immediately north of the city centre of York, in England. 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 railings in front of the building are original, and also by John Walker, with heads in an organic style.Inside, there is a central hall, with a large fireplace, moved from the first floor. There are two staircases, each with iron balusters and mahogany handrails. The fireplaces and plasterwork were designed by Francis Wostenholme.The building and its railings were Grade II listed in 1954.

54 Bootham is a historic building on Bootham, a street running north from the city centre of York, in England. The house was built in about 1840. In 1907, W. H. Auden was born in the house.

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.
