Walled City Photography by Richard Flint Photographs of York 2 Walled City – Photographs of York Walled City – Photographs of York Walled city Photography by Richard Flint Photographs of York 2 Walled City – Photographs of York Walled City – Photographs of York A series of images exploring the UK city of York using the backdrop of the huge medieval walls surrounding the city. The medieval walls of York define the city. Even the modern architecture of the city has borrowed elements from the walls design – most notably York's Travelodge hotel whose entrance has the styling of a medieval castle turret. Built between the 12th and 14th century, with certain parts dating back to roman times, the city walls are some of the most intact in England. 1.9 miles in length, the walls offer some of the best views of the city and are a great platform to watch the day to day goings on within the city. These images were shot on a hot and very bright day in May. The images have been laid out in the book in the order they were taken. Thank you for downloading this book. I hope you enjoy the photographs.

During the medieval period, York had one of the largest Jewish communities in England. In 1190, York's Jewish community was massacred when they refused to renounce their faith. Many in the Jewish community chose to commit suicide rather than be murdered or baptized. According to the BBC local history website:- 'No documentary evidence has been found of a cherem, a Jewish order of excommunication, on York, however, it is widely accepted within the Jewish community that such an order existed. This cherem forbade Jews from settling within York's city walls, and reflects the distaste with which Jews viewed the city. According to sources in the Chief Rabbi's office,devout Jews travelling on the East Coast Main Line still take care not to eat sandwiches as they pass through York, as this would contravene the cherem still associated with the city.On overseas Jewish community internet message boards, the question of whether travel to York is permitted is a frequent one'. According to the 2001 census, the Jewish population of York is only 191 out of a total population of 181094. 72 Walled City – Photographs of York 73 Walled City – Photographs of York City walls - Jewbury 74 Walled City – Photographs of York 75 Walled City – Photographs of York City walls - Jewbury 76 Walled City – Photographs of York 77 Walled City – Photographs of York Battlement view 78 Walled City – Photographs of York 79 Walled City – Photographs of York View through an arrow slit – Jewbury leading into Foss Bank 80 Walled City – Photographs of York 81 Walled City – Photographs of York Walking the dog – Jewbury 82 Walled City – Photographs of York 83 Walled City – Photographs of York Heading back into the city centre 84 Walled City – Photographs of York 85 Walled City – Photographs of York Smiling man and boy 86 Walled City – Photographs of York 87 Walled City – Photographs of York Station Rise 88 Walled City – Photographs of York 89 Walled City – Photographs of York Using the walls is often quicker than walking on the busy streets 90 Walled City – Photographs of York 91 Walled City – Photographs of York Waiting for the bus – Station Road 92 Walled City – Photographs of York 93 Walled City – Photographs of York The city wall along Queen Street 94 Walled City – Photographs of York 95 Walled City – Photographs of York The corner of the city wall starting along Queen Street 96 Walled City – Photographs of York 97 Walled City – Photographs of York Walking along the wall at Micklegate 98 Walled City – Photographs of York 99 Walled City – Photographs of York Couple walk hand in hand near Micklegate 100 Walled City – Photographs of York 101 The best view of York 102 Walled City – Photographs of York 103 Walled City – Photographs of York The Walled City Project The idea for photographing York via its impressive medieval walls first came about in late 2007 but after a promising start the idea never progressed Further. Eighteen months later along came the Solo Photo Book Month project. I'd wanted to do a book last year but heard about it too late to realistically join in. I decided then that I would take part in 2009. Originally I was going to shoot my book project in Newcastle Upon Tyne but time and work commitments made that impossible. I aim to do that project for my 2010 book. I did have the Walled City project marked up as a plan B. The format of a book seemed to fit the idea perfectly. All of the images were taken using a Nikon D2H and Nikon/Sigma lenses. Book layout and design were done using Photoshop, Open Office Draw 3.0 and Adobe Acrobat 8. Walled City – Photographs of York 104 About the Photographer Born in County Durham (UK) in 1972, I took up photography when I was ten years old. My first camera was a plastic 126 film camera purchased from a pharmacy shop in Conwy, North Wales in 1985. In 1991, I went to study Film, TV and Photography which eventually led me onto studying photography to HND and BA(Hons)Degree levels. In 2001, I became a freelance photographer. I currently live near York.

    Study Tour Report for the Medieval Germany, Belgium, France and England (Cathedral, Castle and Abbey --- a day visit in York) TANG Wai Keung / Helen KAM 1 Study Tour Report for the Medieval Germany, Belgium, France and England (Cathedral, Castle and Abbey --- a day visit in York) During this 8-day tour in England, we were requested to present a brief on York around its history, famous persons, attractive buildings and remarkable events etc. With the float of the same contents kept in minds even after the tour, we are prepared to write a study tour report based on this one-day visit with emphasis around its medieval period. York has a long turbulent period of history and, as King Edward VI said, “The history of York is the history of England”. This report will start with a brief history of York, which inevitably be related to persons, events and places we came across during this medieval tour. The report will also describe three attractions in York, viz., York Minster and its stained glass, Helmsley Castle and Rievaulx Abbey. 1 York's history The most important building in York is the York Minster, where in front of the main entrance, we found a statue of Constantine (photo 1). It reflects the height of Roman’s powers that conquered the Celtic tribes and founded Eboracum in this city; from here, the history of York started. 1.1 Roman York During our journey in the southern coast of England, Father Ha introduced to us the spots where the Roman first landed in Britain.

  • Newsletter Vol. 2
    CASTLE STUDIES GROUP NEWSLETTER Number 2 AUTUMN 1988 Dear Member First of all, may I apologise for the belated appearance of this Newsletter, which has become the casualty of a growing pile of paperwork in Exeter University. Second, you will immediately see that its contents are not exactly as anticipated when last year's Newsletter was produced. As a result of discussion among the Steering Committee, which had an. informal meeting after the first day of the conference at Leeds in May of this year, the original plan to publish the Register of Members separately has been abandoned. Instead, the information collected on numerous questionnaires between 1986 and 1988 5s presented here, in digested form, in the second Newsletter together wit a an up-dated list of members The questionnaire enclosed Invites you to send information to appear in next year's Newsletter, in conjunction with the publications list which is provided by John Kenyon, In this way, each Newsletter will provide an accumulating body of information. Third, you will find enclosed a Bankers Order Form, which you may prefer to use rather than send a cheque each year. Use of these forms will certainly help in cutting down the paperwork for your Secretary. If you have not yet renewed your subscription from April 1988, please do so very soon. While numerous comments have been received about the usefulness of the Newsletter it will not develop its full potential unless members send items for publication. The first two issues have been very "business" orientated in their content. Please remember to send local/regional/national/ international news which you think might be of interest, together with dates and venues of meetings or courses (adult education tutors please note!) which members might wish to attend.

  • Recapturing Early Modern English Urban Defences: York and Kingston-Upon-Hull, C.1550-1700
    Recapturing early modern English urban defences: York and Kingston-upon-Hull, c.1550-1700 Two Volumes, Volume I Simon Charles Webb, BA, MA PhD University of York Archaeology January 2015 Abstract This thesis is an interdisciplinary study of York and Kingston-upon-Hull’s early modern defensive walls from c.1550-1700. It seeks to consider the scope and historical value of studying structures that have either been restored or completely demolished over time. Through the use of extensive archival material and archaeological, historical, architectural and historical archaeological methodology, the thesis hypothesises that a corporation’s urban defences were utilised in the administration of a town or city, the projection of civic authority, formed part of a recognisable and burgeoning civic bureaucracy and were tied up with notions of civic identity. In considering the utilisation of these structures removed from their ostensibly medieval military exigency it is possible to comprehend an urban phenomenon that was ubiquitous throughout England and Europe during the early modern period. To date their study has often been limited to the discussion within the medieval period when they were first constructed. When discussed during the early modern period they are predominantly examined within a European and military context. This considers English urban defences as stylistically and military retrograde examples of early modern structures whose use was only rediscovered during the English Civil War of the 1640’s. The thesis seeks to definitively prove that these structures were neither retrograde nor limited to historical and military flashpoints. They are an overlooked historical resource that is able to provide a conduit to better comprehend the physical and theoretical perimeters of urban centres that were harnessed in the negotiation of the periods urban, civic, social, political and moral contexts both nationally and locally.

  • The City Walls
    THE CITY WALLS The walls date back to Roman times, being originally built of earth and wood in 71AD. They were rebuilt in stone in the 3rd & 4thC AD. The Anglo-Saxons patched up the roman defences, while the Vikings and Normans replaced them with Earthen ramparts. They were rebuilt in stone in the 13th C for defence against the Scots. The walls were prepared for siege in 1745 when Bonnie Prince Charlie led the Jacobite Rebellion, but never tested.The last time the walls were defended was 1757, when rioters, protesting at taxation to support the militia, threatened the city. In the late 18thC the walls became ruinous. In 1800 the city resolved to pull down the walls by Act of Parliament, but the government or George III himself is reported to have refused assent. So the city council decided to obtain their ends by attrition. Skeldergate Postern was demolished in 1807, but Archbishop Markham sued the council for loss of tolls he was entitled to exact at Lammastide, and further demolition was more cautious. William Etty, among many others campaigned against demolition and for their restoration as an amenity. Sir Walter Scott offered to walk from Edinburgh to London in 1826 if it would save Micklegate Bar Barbican. The walls, and castle, are largely owned by York City Council, and are listed as ancient monuments. York City Council maintain the walls, under the guidance of English Heritage, though the work is usually performed by outside contractors. The Bars and Posterns were manned continuously by resident Bar keepers, and up until the late 18thC the Bars and Posterns were closed at dusk and opened at dawn.
