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

Welcome to the most popular city in the UK in 2025 (if you believe YouGov polls... https://yougov.co.uk/ratings/travel/popularity/cities/all). Staggering amount of fascinating history and Wikipedia does a decent job of making it accessible, or you can go really deep into something like the five-volume "An Inventory of the Historical Monuments in City of York": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_York https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eboracum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandinavian_York https://www.british-history.ac.uk/rchme/york/vol1

The Red Tower is located next to what used to be a fairly sizeable lake known as the ‘Kings Fishpond’. The lake was formed in 1068, when William the Conqueror dammed the river Foss at Fishergate, raising the water level by 2m (6ft). A map of 1610 by John Speed shows how the water provided a very effective defence as it spread over low ground to the east of the city and also some distance up Tang Hall Beck. It shows the medieval city walls surrounding Walmgate from Fishergate Tower to Red Tower, each ending next to the waters of the flooded river Foss. Lots of info on this landmark if you are interested: https://www.yorkwalls.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Red-Tower-History-rev-2.pdf (7-page pdf) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Tower_(York) http://redtoweryork.org.uk/red-tower-history/ https://yorkcivictrust.co.uk/heritage/civic-trust-plaques/red-tower/

Bishopthorpe Palace is situated along the beautiful River Ouse south of the city centre of York. It's the official home of the Archbishop of York, and has been for all previous Archbishop's of York since 1241. Whilst the inside of the palace is only open for pre-arranged tours with quite a long waiting list, you can still admire the palace and its beautiful gatehouse from the footpath outside.

The ancient walled city of York dates back an incredible 2,000 years. The city is characterised by its historic buildings, outstanding architecture and narrow medieval streets lined with independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, the most famous of these streets being the iconic Shambles.

In 1890, the prison commissioners agreed to declare Clifford's Tower a national monument and preserve it as a historic site. [112] In 1902, Clifford's Tower was given to York Corporation, along with a grant of £3,000 (equivalent to £320,000 in 2019) for conservation and repairs arranged by Lord Wenlock. The removal of rubble and damage to the castle's masonry in the 16th century placed excessive pressure on the retaining wall, leading to renewed subsidence in the 14th century. [117] Sir Basil Mott, a leading Victorian engineer, installed concrete underpinnings to stabilize the structure beneath the gatehouse. [117]In the early 20th century, Clifford's Tower was regularly open to visitors and in 1915 it was handed over to the Office of Works as a national monument (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/York_Castle).

Beautiful gardens, well maintained. With some ruins
