York Minster, the largest Gothic cathedral in Northern Europe, and its famed Rose Window
York city centre is laid out to this day to a plan set down by the Romans. Ever since then, history has embellished the York streets with examples of architecture throughout the ages.
From grand monuments like the Minster to vernacular treats like the Shambles, taking a trip to York is like travelling back in time.
Or, as a co-worker from Rochdale once said to me, “York’s like Legoland, innit?”.
