The Red Lion is a pub in the city centre of York, in England. The building originated as a house, in a yard off Walmgate. The original part of the building is to the north-east, built in the 15th century as a house with a first floor hall and other rooms below. It appears to have been truncated at the north-west end, and is now one-and-a-half bays long. The south-eastern end of the building was rebuilt around 1600, and an attic was also inserted. In the 17th century, a lower wing was added to the south-west, in two stages, with a ground floor of brick. There were further extensions in the 18th century, and a new front was added in the 19th century. The building is timber framed, but has been largely reconstructed over the years. The windows are 20th-century. On the first floor, there is an access between two bedrooms, linked to the chimney, which has been described as a priest hole. In the front bar is a bread oven, which the pub claims dates from the 13th century, and on these grounds, it claims to be the city's oldest pub. However, the building only became a pub in the 19th century.In 1912, the street of Merchantgate was constructed immediately north of the pub, and it is now accessed from that road. In 1954, the pub was Grade II listed.A legend claims that Dick Turpin once escaped through a window of the pub.

The Watergate Inn is a historic pub in the city centre of York, in England. The pub lies on Walmgate, a street which had 20 pubs in 1901, of which The Watergate is the last survivor. The first record of a pub on the site was of the City Arms, in 1702. It was rebuilt in the late 18th century, and by 1818 had become the Five Lions. The new building was a coaching inn, with stables behind, and as late as 1881 it had regular carriers running each Sunday to Wheldrake and Full Sutton. By the start of the 20th century, the inn offered nine bedrooms. It began marketing some of them as specifically for cyclists. In addition to a bar and a smoke room, it had a dining room for women. It remained the Five Lions until 2015, when it was renamed "The Watergate Inn", in reference to the River Foss, flowing behind the pub. The pub has been Grade II listed since 1954. The pub is two storeys high and is built of brick. It was originally L-shaped in plan, but was later extended to have a rectangular plan. In the 19th century, a carriageway was built through the structure, to provide access to the stables. The part of the ground floor to the right of the carriageway is now a separate shop. The pub's tiled front was added in the 1930s. The interior of the pub has been repeatedly altered in the 20th century. The stables were originally a mixture of one- and two-storey structures, but in the 19th century were all raised to two storeys. They were partly demolished in the 20th century, and were later converted into accommodation.

York Carmelite Friary was a friary in York, North Yorkshire, England, that was established in about 1250, moved to its permanent site in 1295 and was surrendered in 1538. The original site was on Bootham in York until 1295 when William de Vescy gave the Carmelite friars a tenement in Stonebow Lane which extended as far south as the River Foss and from east to west between the streets of Fossgate and 'Mersk'. Within five years the friary church was under construction followed by the consecration of a cemetery in 1304 and the church in 1328. A royal licence was granted in 1314 that allowed the friars to build a quay on the Fishpond of the Foss and keep a boat that enabled the transporting of building materials. This licence and the gift of additional lands was followed by a number of extensions that took place throughout the 14th century culminating in the rebuilding of the church in 1392 as the friary eventually extended as far east as Hungate. The location of friary land within the parishes of St Crux and St Saviour meant that from 1301 an annual payment to St Saviour's was established following complaints from St Mary's convent to whom the church was appropriated. In 1320 Archbishop Melton stated that annual compensation was to be paid to the rector of St Crux and in 1350 the friary was restricted in the use of its chapel. The chapel, which was located above the gatehouse at the northern end of the friary, contained a life-size statue of the Virgin Mary which attracted many pilgrims, but the friars were made to remove the statue.The last Prior of the Carmelite friary, Simon Clerkson, was a supporter of the Henrician regime and, after the dissolution, was granted the vicarage of Rotherham. The friary was surrendered to Sir George Lawson in 1538 after which the site was leased to a Ralph Beckwith in 1540 and his family held the land until 1614. A few monuments and architectural fragments from the friary are in the collection of the Yorkshire Museum in York. The location of the friary can be found on several historical maps up to 1852 including Speed's map of 1610 and Baines of 1822, however the modern street pattern has significantly changed. The friary has been completely built over, however it is thought that the limestone masonry incorporated into buildings on the site may have been from the walls of the friary. In the 1990s the public house (since renamed The Terrace) on the corner of Fossgate and Stonebow was called the Northern Wall in reference to its location on the site of the former friary.In 1995, the Carmelites returned to work in York when they were invited by the Diocese of Middlesbrough to be chaplains at More House to the University of York.

It is a Grade II listed building.Early films were screened in various temporary locations in York, and in 1908, the New Street Wesleyan Chapel was converted into the Hippodrome Cinema.

In 1951, the cinema was renamed the Scala, but it closed in 1957.The empty cinema was purchased by Macdonalds furniture shop, which already occupied the building next door. The shop closed in 2016, and the following year, it reopened as the Cosy Club restaurant and bar.The oldest part of the building is the boundary wall at the rear, the base of which is mediaeval, with later additions, and was originally part of the wall of the York Carmelite Friary.
