    The Walls but on the Rampart Underneath and the Ditch Surrounding Them

    A walk through 1,900 years of history The Bar Walls of York are the finest and most complete of any town in England. There are five main “bars” (big gateways), one postern (a small gateway) one Victorian gateway, and 45 towers. At two miles (3.4 kilometres), they are also the longest town walls in the country. Allow two hours to walk around the entire circuit. In medieval times the defence of the city relied not just on the walls but on the rampart underneath and the ditch surrounding them. The ditch, which has been filled in almost everywhere, was once 60 feet (18.3m) wide and 10 feet (3m) deep! The Walls are generally 13 feet (4m) high and 6 feet (1.8m) wide. The rampart on which they stand is up to 30 feet high (9m) and 100 feet (30m) wide and conceals the earlier defences built by Romans, Vikings and Normans. The Roman defences The Normans In AD71 the Roman 9th Legion arrived at the strategic spot where It took William The Conqueror two years to move north after his the rivers Ouse and Foss met. They quickly set about building a victory at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

However, when William marched north to quell the potential for rebellion his advance caused such alarm that he entered the city The first defences were simple: a ditch, an embankment made of unopposed.

    Creating the Slum: Representations of Poverty in the Hungate and Walmgate Districts of York, 1875-1914

    Laura Harrison Ex Historia 61 Laura Harrison1 University of Leeds Creating the slum: representations of poverty in the Hungate and Walmgate districts of York, 1875-1914 In his first social survey of York, B. Seebohm Rowntree described the Walmgate and Hungate areas as ‘the largest poor district in the city’ comprising ‘some typical slum areas’.2 The York Medical Officer of Health condemned the small and fetid yards and alleyways that branched off the main Walmgate thoroughfare in his 1914 report, noting that ‘there are no amenities; it is an absolute slum’.3 Newspapers regularly denounced the behaviour of the area’s residents; reporting on notorious individuals and particular neighbourhoods, and in an 1892 report to the Watch Committee the Chief Constable put the case for more police officers on the account of Walmgate becoming increasingly ‘difficult to manage’.4 James Cave recalled when he was a child the police would only enter Hungate ‘in twos and threes’.5 The Hungate and Walmgate districts were the focus of social surveys and reports, they featured in complaints by sanitary inspectors and the police, and residents were prominent in court and newspaper reports. The area was repeatedly characterised as a slum, and its inhabitants as existing on the edge of acceptable living conditions and behaviour. Condemned as sanitary abominations, observers made explicit connections between the physical condition of these spaces and the moral behaviour of their 1 Laura ([email protected]) is a doctoral candidate at the University of Leeds, and recently submitted her thesis ‘Negotiating the meanings of space: leisure, courtship and the young working class of York, c.1880-1920’.

    GRAVEYARD, COFFIN and PLAGUE TOUR 2000 Years of Corpse Disposal; Where Have We Put Them All? Visit York’S Historic Graveyard, Plague and Execution Sites

    GRAVEYARD, COFFIN AND PLAGUE TOUR 2000 years of corpse disposal; where have we put them all? Visit York’s historic graveyard, plague and execution sites. ST LEONARD’S HOSPITAL ARCH The story begins here, under the arch of the mediaeval hospital, with the Romans. The Romans always buried in cemeteries along the main roads, outside cities for hygiene reasons. The Roman cemeteries for York were along the Tadcaster Road, Bootham, Fulford Rd etc. The heavy stone coffins here came from the Roman cemeteries, discovered in the 19thC, in the station/Tadcaster Rd areas. These were the coffins of those rich enough to afford them; the aim was to preserve the body for the afterlife. The coffins came, probably by river, from sandstone outcrops in the Wetherby/Pennine areas. They are so large to accommodate the embalming and grave goods, such as food, wine, jewellery and games; obviously you wanted to look your best in the hereafter and you would need the food, drink and games to while away the waiting-a bit like an eternal airport waiting lounge! One or two have the remnants of inscriptions on; one has the letters ‘D M’- ‘Dis Manibus’ – ‘to the Spirits of the Dead’ INSIDE THE MULTANGULAR TOWER More Roman coffins on display here, all from outside the City. Note they are all different sizes-presumably made to measure-including two child coffins. The holes in the ends are to help lifting with giant callipers. The ideal chance to lie in a coffin if you want! KINGS MANOR The second courtyard (ask Porter’s permission to view) contains two fine mediaeval stone coffins from St Mary’s Abbey graveyard nearby.
  • Holy Trinity Priory

    Holy Trinity Priory

    INNACCESSIBLE YORK – MICKLEGATE AREA & GEORGIAN YORK A tour of some of the least known parts of York across the River Ouse, including some rarely open Mediaeval churches and Houses, and some stunning Georgian interiors. MICKLEGATE HOUSE-now Backpackers Hostel This is one of the finest Georgian town houses in York, as grand as Fairfax House in its day. It was built by 1752 by the architect John Carr for John and Mildred Bourchier of Beningbrough Hall; their initials, crest and the date are to be seen on the drainpipes. They along with other members of the Gentry and Aristocracy would come to York for entertainments-Horse Racing, the Theatre and the Law Courts- which would result in a few public hangings! The condemned criminals would pass along Micklegate on their way to be hung on the Knavesmire, sat on their own coffin and wearing a shroud. The most famous to pass this way was Dick Turpin in 1739. The house is a rebuild of any earlier house or houses, as the internal layout is odd; at the back the north wing goes further back than the south; the right hand servants’ door may have been the front door of one of the two houses amalgamated to form this one; and the cellar has re-used (ships?) timbers and 16th or 17th C brickwork in what is now the Cellar Bar. The staircase is very fine with superb carved balusters and a plaster ceiling by the Italian artist Cortese, who did the ceilings at Fairfax House. It includes busts of Newton and Shakespeare.
