2 Jubbergate (top)
The older part of the building was constructed in the 14th-century, in the early-17th century, another timber-framed building was constructed over time the two become interconnected and are now a single property, by 1830 the building was a chemists and art shop, by 1870s it was a hatters' shop, in1928 the building was restored, replacing the windows and renewed some of the timber. following the reconstruction, the building served for many years as the White Rose Café, it was grade II listed status in 1954, and in 1957 it became Gert and Henry's restaurant
The Treasurers House (middle)
In the 12th century masonry from the original Treasurer's House was reused to build this replacement building, the residence served in this capacity until the 26th May 1547 when the house was surrendered to the Crown and sold on to Archbishop Robert Holgate. In 1617 the Young family added the symmetrical front and almost entirely rebuilt the house.
Barly Hall (bottom)
Barley Hall is a medieval townhouse in York. It was built around 1360 by the monks of Nostell Priory, it was extended in the 15th century, the property went into a slow decline and by the 20th century was in an increasingly poor condition, the hall was painstaking restored in the 1990’s to its medieval spender
Amazing the buildings still stand isn't it? Bet Barratt and Linden houses won't be standing in a few centuries. Such interesting narrative and fabulous collage
@365projectorgheatherb Thank you for your wonderful comment Heather, generally they do try to keep our old buildings maintained in the UK, it’s almost impossible to get planning permission to knock one down:)
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thank you Jackie for your comment I’m sure you are absolutely right plus they don’t stay as built for long, our place we bought 7 years ago is larger and nothing like it was inside, lol:)
