Holy Trinity Church, King's Court, also known as Christ Church, was a parish church in the city centre of York, in England. The church was first recorded in 1268. It was largely or wholly rebuilt in the 14th century, with a nave, north and south aisles, and a 60-foot high tower, and there were further additions in the 15th century. From the 1410s, it was linked with St Michael's Hospital in Well. Although it was a small church, it had at least five chantries in the Mediaeval period.In 1767, two of the church's chantry chapels were demolished in order to enlarge the neighbouring hay market in what became King's Square. Also in the 1760s, the church's stained glass was removed. Located at a busy junction, at the top of The Shambles, the church became regarded as an impediment to traffic; in 1818, William Hargrove noted that several people had been killed coming around the narrow and sharp corner of the church, and he proposed demolishing the eastern end. In 1829, a triangular part on the east side of the church was demolished, in order that Colliergate could be widened. The demolitions did not resolve the church's issues, and in the 1850s, Sotheran's Guide stated that "the building has been several times curtailed, and if it was altogether removed there would be no loss of architectural beauty, and a great increase to public convenience".In 1861, the church was rebuilt, in a Decorated style design, by Rawlins Gould. Only the east wall was retained from the old church, but the new church had the same plan, with the additions of north and south porches, and a vestry. In 1877, the church's plate was melted down, to produce new plate.Due to its declining congregation, its parish was merged with that of St Sampson's Church in 1886, and the church soon became disused. By 1896, it was used to house sheep on their way to slaughter. The furnishings were removed to St Mary Bishophill Junior, and St Everilda's Church, Nether Poppleton. However, the large clock on its tower was maintained.In 1937, the church was demolished, allowing King's Square to be further enlarged. Part of the square is paved with 19 gravestones from the church's cemetery.

St Trinity House is an historic series of four buildings in the English city of York, North Yorkshire. Grade II listed and forming the southern end of King's Square, parts of the structures date to the early 18th century, with alterations occurring over the next two hundred years. Their addresses today range from 3 to 4A King's Square. The Duke of York pub is at numbers 3 and 4; and the current use of 4A, the oldest building in the range, is not known, although people signed up for The Ghost Hunt of York are asked to meet beside it. The only rendered front of the four, it adjoins 1 The Shambles to form an L-shape at the southwestern corner of the square. In the early 20th century, both buildings were the home of G. Ackroyd Furniture Stores.In 1430, the site was occupied by shops by the name of Le Mercery and by a building known as Hellekeld (the dark well). These were believed to be a precursor to Pump Court.Three of the buildings are 20th-century remodels of 15th-century (or earlier) structures, one of which was altered in the 17th century, while two were rebuilt in the early part of the 18th century. The other one is a 20th-century structure. Each 15th-century structure retains its timberframing.The first floor of 4A is jettied towards Newgate and retains its dragon beam on that corner. (The first building at what appears to be the beginning of Newgate is actuallly 5 and 6 King's Court.) The buildings were in the shadow of Holy Trinity Church (for which the building is named), which stood immediately to the north in what was then King's Court, between the 15th century and the church's demolition in 1937.
