Bay Horse, Monkgate

The Richard III Experience at Monk Bar (formerly known as the Richard III Museum) was located in Monk Bar, the tallest of the four gatehouses in the historical city walls of York, England. It described the life of Richard III, the last king of the Plantagenet dynasty. The museum explored Richard's early life, and the battles that raged between the houses of Lancaster and York during the Wars of the Roses. It described his reign and his death at the Battle of Bosworth, alongside multimedia presentations about the key battles of the Wars of the Roses. There was also arms and armour from his reign, including the only known fragment of a gun from that period.In 2014, the York Archaeological Trust's Jorvik Group (which operates the Jorvik Viking Centre) took over the space within Monk Bar that had housed the Richard III Museum since 1993, and created "The Richard III Experience at Monk Bar". They also replaced the contents of the Micklegate Bar Museum and created "The Henry VII Experience at Micklegate Bar".The museum, along with other visitor attractions operated by the Jorvik Group, closed in 2020 at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. When the group's larger sites reopened in July 2020 the Richard III and Henry VII experiences remained closed owing to their limited capacity for social distancing. The Henry VII Experience was replaced by the City Walls Experience which opened in April 2022.

The Royal Oak is a pub in the city centre of York, in England. The pub lies on Goodramgate. The building is believed to date from the 15th-century and is largely timber-framed, although much of it has been rebuilt. The north-eastern section is of three storeys and contains one original internal wall, while the south-western section was originally a single-storey hall and contains part of one original partition wall, plus a reset Mediaeval beam.In the 18th-century, the north-eastern section was extended to the rear, in brick. Many of the features of the upper floors date from this period, including the staircase. A second storey was added to the south-western section in the 19th-century, while in 1934 the ground floor was refurbished, with a new frontage, in the Brewer's Tudor style.The building was a pub by 1772, when it was known as the Blue Pigg. It later became known as the Blue Boar, and has been the Royal Oak since 1819. From 1894, it was owned by the local John J. Hunt Brewery, while in the mid-20th century, it was acquired by Camerons Brewery.

The Dutch House is a historic house, lying on Ogleforth, in the city centre of York, in England. The house was built in brick in about 1650, with Andrew Graham dating it to 1648. It is a small building and originally had two rooms on the ground floor and one on the first floor. Later in the 17th-century, two Dutch gables were added to the front, each with a dormer window. Originally, it is believed to have had only an external staircase, suggesting that it was not a domestic building.In the 18th century, the building's interior was heavily altered, and by the early 19th century, it had been divided into three tenements. In 1954, it was Grade II* listed but it was in a poor state of repair, and in 1956, John Smith's Brewery announced plans to demolish it. Instead, the York Civic Trust restored the building, with much of the front wall entirely rebuilt, as a copy of the original. It then formed part of the brewery, but in 2010 was converted to accommodation, and has since been available to let for holidays. This more recent work won a York Design Award.The building is of two storeys and an attic. It is four bays wide, with the leftmost bay having no windows or doors. The other three all differ: a window with three lights on each floor in the second bay, a round-headed door with an oriel window above in the third bay, and a smaller first floor window in the fourth bay, with the ground floor window having been filled in, though its pediment remains.

The Golden Slipper is a Grade II listed pub in the city centre of York, England.The pub lies on Goodramgate. It was originally constructed about 1500 as a house, with the north-eastern half the building dating from this period. This section is three storeys high and timber-framed. Its facade is jettied to the street, and rendered over. To its right, it originally overhung an alleyway, but the neighbouring Royal Oak has since extended into this space. In the 18th-century, it was extended to the rear, in brick, with an attic added to this section in the 19th-century.The south-western half of the building dates from the 19th-century. It is brick-built and of two storeys, with a basement and attic. Internally, the building has been frequently altered and does not retain any original features. Its ground floor, based around a corridor, is largely Victorian, but was partly redesigned in 1983, against the objections of the Campaign for Real Ale.The older half of the building may have already been a pub in the 18th-century, named the Show, the name taken either from a greyhound, or as an alternative spelling of "shoe". By 1812, it was The Slipper, becoming The Golden Slipper in the 20th-century.There are stories of the pub being haunted, with ghosts said to manifest themselves when the building is being decorated. The haunting was linked to the discovery of a Mediaeval children's shoe in 1984, during work at the pub. The building was later exorcised.

The Oliver Sheldon House is a Grade II* listed house on Aldwark, in the city centre of York, in England. The earliest surviving part of the house is some 15th-century internal framing. In the late 16th century, a block was added to the rear, the design of which is tentatively attributed by the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England (RCHME) to William Garbutt. In 1703, it was purchased by Charles Redman, who soon became Lord Mayor of York. He rebuilt the exterior, in brick, in about 1720, the work being completed under his son William. He sold the house in 1748, following which it was divided, and the south-east doorway was added. By the mid-19th century, part of the building operated as the Ebor Tavern. In 1961, the whole building was donated to the York Civic Trust, which commissioned Francis Johnson to restore it as flats, the work being complete in 1969. The trust named the property after Oliver Sheldon, who had been a leading figure in the organisation.The building is of two storeys and an attic, with the front having eight windows and two doors. The front is of orange brick, with a stone plinth and a timber cornice. One drainhead is dated 1732. Internally, much 18th-century work survives, including the flooring in the entrance and staircase halls, the oak main staircase, the ceiling above the staircase, and the panelling of two ground floor rooms. The half-landing, in the middle of the staircase, has a wooden floor which the RCHME describe as "exceptional". One rear ground floor room has an early-17th century ceiling, and a fireplace surround which was moved from 27 Trinity Lane in 1969.

The Black Horse (officially listed as the Tap and Spile), is a Grade II listed public house with guest rooms on Monkgate in York, England. The present building was rebuilt in 1897 for John Hunt's Brewery, to designs by Walter Green Penty. It traded as the Black Horse, later became the Tap and Spile, and was renamed the Black Horse again in 2014. The site was included in the Central Historic Core conservation area in 1968, and as of August 2025 the freehold is owned by Stonegate.

Cromwell House is a grade II* listed house on Ogleforth, in the city centre of York, in England. The house was built in about 1700, and is of two storeys, with an attic. It is roughly square in plan. The rear half of the house is lower than the front part, and was originally under two separate roofs, each with its own gable, an arrangement altered in the 19th century. Between the two parts of the rear half is a timber-framed partition, which survives from an earlier building on the site, and the roof also has much reused timber. The interior was remodelled in about 1760, from which time the staircase survives.The principle interest of the house lies in its facade, which the Royal Commission on Historic Monuments described as "architecturally ambitious". It is of five bays, and originally had pilasters at each end, one of which survives. It also originally had an entablature running the full width of the second storey, which has also been lost. The doorway has a moulded stone surround. The ground and first floor windows are all 12-pane sashes, while the pediment has three small rectangular windows flanked by a pair of oval windows.In 1974, the front of the house was rebuilt, and the rear gable demolished in the 19th century was rebuilt. The building was renovated in about 1980, for use as offices, but in 2011, it was converted into flats

25 Goodramgate is a historic building in the city centre of York, England. The oldest part of the property is the archway providing access from Goodramgate into Bedern, which dates from the 16th century. The rest of the property was rebuilt as a house around 1600, then in 1690 was partly rebuilt by James Kiplin. In the 18th century, the ground floor of the building was reconstructed in brick. A shopfront was inserted on the ground floor in the 20th century, and the building was Grade II listed in 1954. It is in retail use, and in 2025 opened as The Gothelie Station, a Victorian Gothic themed shop. The building is timber-framed at the rear, and constructed of orange-brown brick elsewhere, painted at the front. It has a pantile roof, with brick chimneystacks and three dormer windows. It has two storeys and an attic, and is three bays wide. The rightmost bay incorporates the flattened arch to Bedern. Most of the windows are sashes. At the rear there is a gable wall, jettied to both sides. Inside, on the first floor, there is some 17th-century panelling and a fireplace of similar date.
