A large wire figure of a man in a bobble hat sitting on top of the bridge, with a fishing rod hanging out over the River Ouse, on the end of his line he has caught the 'Flying Scotsman' train which used to run on the railway line that used this bridge – now decommissioned. It is part of the Sustrans route 65 cycle way. Source: https://artuk.org/discover/artworks/fisher-of-dreams-324103

Built in 2001 for over £4m, the York Millennium Bridge is a pedestrian and cycle bridge over the River Ouse in York, England. It connects New Walk to Terry Avenue, south of the city centre, and is part of a popular circular walking route. The bridge was designed to shorten the walking and cycling routes for people in the South Bank area of the city to the University of York and the city centre. If you are a pedestrian, then keep your wits about you. Cyclists will not give you any room and will not slow down either.

Don't visit in winter. Very good chance it will be under water, or sludge after the River Ouse floodwaters have receded. Bearing that in mind, YCC and the keepers do a pretty good job of maintaining the park. The park was created in memory of employees of Rowntree's who died in the First World War, and was opened on 16 July 1921 by local entrepreneur and philanthropist Joseph Rowntree. Upon their purchase in 1919, the 17 acres of land cost £1,500. The park now covers an area of 25 acres, with it being extended in 1926/7 with the purchase of Clementhorpe allotments, and further in 2000 with the purchase of Butcher Terrace football fields. The gates at the riverbank entrance are eighteenth-century and were given by the company as a memorial to the people of York who died in the Second World War. There are further commemorative plaques on the dovecote. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rowntree_Park

In the search for a worthy patronage for this church, the initial choice was the Archangel Michael, whose name (from the Hebrew language) means "Who is like God?" However, it was then decided that it could not hurt to significantly increase the number of intercessors at God's throne for this church and its parishioners. Thus, the idea arose not to choose just one patron saint, but to expand the patronage to include the entire heavenly host (i.e., "All Angels").

Old Norse "mykill" (great) and "gata" (street), the "gate" suffix being very common among York street names. You can also add the heads of Edmund, Earl of Rutland and Richard Neville, 5th Earl of Salisbury to the Bar, and some say that the Duke of York's participation in the Battle of Wakefield is the source of the phrase for remembering the traditional colours of the rainbow, Richard Of York Gave Battle in Vain...

The remains of this Augustinian priory include a gatehouse adorned with the De Roos family heraldry. You can also learn about the priory's role in World War II, including Winston Churchill's secret visit and its use in training and testing for D-Day.
