The Swan is a Grade II listed historic pub, lying immediately south-west of the city centre of York, in England. The pub was built as a beer house and grocery in 1861, at the end of a terrace on Bishopgate Street, the northern extension of Bishopthorpe Road. In 1899, it was purchased by the Joshua Tetley's & Son brewery, which in 1936 decided to remodel the pub. The redesign was executed by the Leeds architecture firm Kitson, Parish, Ledgard and Pyman, and it survives largely intact.The design centres on a large drinking lobby, with two rooms leading off, the public bar to the front and the grander smoke room to the rear. Each has a hatch for bar service. There is a hatch from the servery to Clementhorpe, which was used for take-out sales, but is no longer in use. At the rear of the pub, there are stairs up to first-floor accommodation, and down to the cellar.Surviving features from the 1936 redesign include the fitted seats, terrazzo floor, bell pushes, and toilets. It was made a Tetley's heritage pub in 1985 and was listed in 2010 following a campaign by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA). That organisation describes the pub as "one of the best preserved interiors of its kind in the country".In 2009, CAMRA named The Swan its York Pub of the Year. By 2017, the pub was owned by Punch Taverns. That year, the landlord used the Pubs Code Regulations 2016 to move from being a tied house to operating on a market rent-only basis. In 2020, the pub was one of fourteen in the city to appear in the Good Beer Guide.

The Golden Ball is a pub in the Bishophill area of central York, in England. The first record of the pub was in 1773. The core part of the building was constructed in the early 19th century. In 1883, a house for the publican was constructed by Benson & Minks, adjoining the pub. The pub was sold to Braime's Brewery in 1884, and this in 1902 was taken over by John Smith's Brewery. In 1929, the pub was constructed by their architect Bertram Wilson. He combined the two buildings, raised the ceiling height in the older part of the building, and decorated the front of the pub. In the 1990s, an additional room was added to the pub, from what was formerly a private area. The pub has otherwise been little altered since the 1920s, and is described by the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) as "the most complete surviving inter-war scheme by John Smith's". In 2010, the pub was grade II listed on the initiative of CAMRA, and it appears on that organisation's National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors. In 2012, the pub was taken over by a co-operative of local residents. Since then, it has held beer festivals, an annual summer fete, and sells works by local artists. It also hosts local music nights. The pub has two storeys and a cellar. The whole building is constructed of brick, but the older part, on the corner of Victor Street, has tiling at the ground floor level, and is rendered at the first floor. Its entrance is on Cromwell Road, opening onto a corridor, with the former smoke bar on the left, and the public bar on the right. Historic England notes that it has the only known surviving example of a "bar-side seating alcove", known as a "hall". There is a now-disused doorway for take-away sales, signed "Jug & Bottle Dept". The ground floor windows on Victor Street incorporate etched glass, advertising John Smiths and Magnet Ales. Many internal fittings survive from the 1929 redesign, including doors, tiling, flooring, and the bar.

South Bank is an area of York in the county of North Yorkshire, England. It is to the south of the River Ouse. It was home to the now-closed Terry's Chocolate Works. The Chocolate Works factory opened in 1926, where over the years it manufactured Terry's Chocolate Orange, Terry's All Gold and York Fruits. Terry's was acquired by Kraft Foods in 1993, who decided in 2004 to switch production of remaining products All Gold and Chocolate Orange to factories in Belgium, Sweden, Poland and Slovakia, and close the plant. The factory closed on 30 September 2005, with the loss of 317 jobs.Located near the factory is York Racecourse, which forms part of the larger Knavesmire. There is an Athletics Club, the Knavesmire Harriers, who train in this area. South Bank is also the location of Rowntree Park, which is situated near the River Ouse. The Millennium Bridge, which links South Bank to Fishergate and Fulford on the other side of the river, was completed in 2001 at a cost of £4.2 million.Knavesmire Primary School opened in 1914 and is the main primary school in the area.

Micklegate Priory, York was a Benedictine monastery founded in 1089 by Ralph Paynel, and dedicated to the Holy Trinity. It fronted on Micklegate, in the city of York, England, and the site had previously been used for Christ Church, a house of secular canons.The site is now that of Holy Trinity Church. Holbeck Manor, south of Leeds, belonged to the priory, and after the Dissolution of the Monasteries passed to the Darcy and Ingram families.

Lady Anne House is a former almshouse, now a hotel, in York, in England. The almshouse was founded by Ann Middleton, in 1659, on a site on Skeldergate, in the Bishophill area of York. Known as Middleton's Hospital, it had 22 apartments around a small yard, housing twenty widows.In 1827, the hospital was demolished, and rebuilt further back from the street, as a two-storey brick structure. It was designed by Peter Atkinson, and was completed in 1829. The garden walls also date from this period. In the centre of the front is a statue of a woman in Puritan dress, which is believed to survive from the original building. In 1939, the building was modernised, to house ten residents and a warden; however, by 1972, the building was in a poor state of repair. It was purchased by the owners of the hotel at 56 Skeldergate, who restored it, and incorporated it into their hotel, which is now known as Middletons Hotel. Since 1997, it has been a Grade II* listed building.

Baile Hill is a man-made earth mound in the Bishophill area of York, England. It is the only remaining feature of what was known as the Old Baile. The origins of Baile Hill date back to 1068. Having seized York in that year, William the Conqueror built a castle on the south side of the city close to the River Ouse. Then, as a response to a rebellion the following year, a second castle was built on the opposite side of the river. There is no clear evidence which of these castles was built first, but it is generally thought to be the one which stood on the site of the later York Castle on the east side of the river, followed by the Old Baile on the west side. Like its opposite counterpart, the Old Baile was of motte and bailey design. The motte was approximately 40 feet (12 m) high and 180 feet (66 m) in diameter, and was surrounded by a large ditch. A flight of steps led to a wooden structure at the top which was surrounded by a fence, also made of wood. The bailey lay to the north-west of the motte and was rectangular. Around its perimeter was an earth rampart and an outer ditch. The castle, it is believed, was not in regular use for long. By the 13th century it was in the hands of the Archbishop of York and in 1322 Archbishop Melton agreed to defend it in times of war. By c. 1340 part of the city wall had been built along the south-east and south-west sides of the Old Baile, incorporating the existing ramparts and ditch, however, these defences were rarely called into use. The only notable occasion was the siege of York in 1644 during the Civil War, when Baile Hill was used as a royalist gun emplacement. Apart from that, however, the Old Baile was used mainly for grazing and recreation activities, particularly archery during the medieval period. Today, Baile Hill stands at the junction of Baile Hill Terrace and Cromwell Road. The only other visible evidence of the former castle are two slight dips in the city wall rampart, one next to Baile Hill and the other close to Victoria Bar, which indicate the location of the former ditch. Houses built during the 1880s cover the rest of the Old Baile.

The Wesley Chapel on Priory Street, in the Bishophill area of York, in England, is a grade II* listed building. The church was built in 1856, on the newly-developed Priory Street, the area formerly having been part of the grounds of the Holy Trinity Priory. On opening, it was able to accommodate 1,500 worshippers, and it was extended the following year, with the addition of a school, a Sunday school, and a house for a preacher. The design was by James Simpson, and it cost £10,936.The chapel is built of brick, in a classical style, with a stone pediment, and stone around the windows and doors. The front is of five bays, and two storeys. It has three main entrance doors, and two arched windows on the ground floor, and three arched windows above. The left and right facades are of seven bays, but designed in a similar manner. Inside, the foyer is fully panelled, with a glazed screen separating it from the auditorium. The screen incorporates a memorial panel to congregation members killed in World War I. Doors in the side of the screen lead to staircases up to an oval gallery. This is above the auditorium, which retains its original pews, and have stained glass in every window except one, much in an Art Nouveau style.Later in the 19th-century, a lecture hall was added at the rear of the building, its design possibly by G. T. Andrews. In 1892, a new organ, built by James Binns, was installed, and the buildings were extended in 1907 and 1910. In 1914, a new porch was added. During World War II, the school was taken over by the council, as the Manor Secondary Modern School, and that building is now the separate Priory Centre.The chapel was originally part of the York Circuit of the Wesleyan Methodist Church. In 1867, it became the head of the new York Wesley Circuit, covering the city west of the River Ouse. In 1932, the Wesleyan Methodists became part of the new Methodist Church of Great Britain, and the chapel headed the revised Wesley Circuit. The chapel closed in 1982, with its congregation transferring to the Central Methodist Church. It was purchased by a congregation linked to the Assemblies of God, and was renamed as the Assembly of God Church, then in 1993 it was renamed as the Rock Church. At this point, it was still part of the Assemblies of God, but aimed to offer a more contemporary expression of worship, with rock music and a dance academy. By 2006, it claimed an average weekly attendance of 250 adults. In 2018, it was again renamed, as QChurch.
