Αυτό είναι το The Pax, όχι Paxton, για ενημέρωσή σας. Εξαιρετικό φαγητό και μπύρα.

You could read Eric Gee's 1983 "Bishopthorpe Palace: An Architectural History", but Eric never had the tinterweb in 1983. We do >>> https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1166705?section=official-list-entry, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bishopthorpe_Palace

Beware of the tree roots that have lifted the path along the route

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...

Beware of dog walkers with uncontrolled dogs.

Loved the fact that they let us take out bikes inside hehe

Lovely little cafe specialising in cakes (hence the name!). Also excellent coffee using North Star beans and good savouries. Quite small but a few outside tables and dog friendly too. I think they take bookings.

Micklegate Bar was the most important of York’s four main medieval gateways and the focus for grand events. The name comes from 'Micklelith', meaning great street. It was the main entrance to the city for anyone arriving from the South. At least half a dozen reigning monarchs have passed through this gate and by tradition they stop here to ask the Lord Mayor's permission to enter the city. The lower section of the bar dates from the 12th century, the top two storeys from the 14th. The building was inhabited from 1196. Like the other main gates, Micklegate Bar originally had a barbican built on the front, in this case demolished in 1826. For centuries the severed heads of rebels and traitors were displayed above the gate, the many victims include Sir Henry Purcey (Hotspur) in 1403 and Richard, Duke of York in 1460. The last of the severed heads was removed in 1754.
