Originally due to go north Scotland, the coach company cancelled and we had to choose an alternative. Glad we did choose York, really enjoyed it and here's some pics.
Got off to a damp start. Here I am standing in front of Clifford's Tower, what remains of York Castle.

To beat the showers, we took a look around the Treasurer's House & Gardens. A lovely property managed by the English National Trust. Situated just behind the Minster. Frank Green purchased the decaying property in 1897, remodelled it by 1930. He was one of only a few pioneering collectors of antique furniture in the 19th century. Here I am in the gardens and on the steps of the house.



After an enjoyable visit, the weather perked up and a visit to the Minster then ensued.

First visit to the River Ouse

Then it was time for a drink in the Guy Fawkes pub just beside the minster. It was then my friends told me that as I was taking photos of the minster, people were taking photos of me. Oh I love the fame !
