Doors 339 – Doors from the City of York (Part I), June 2024
Back to doors of England photographed during my travels around the country with work. This series of doors from York were photographed in June 2024, during a work trip for a team meeting. At the time our team members were distributed around the country in Otley, Manchester, Bristol, Leeds and Nottingham, so going to the York office seemed reasonable for those from the North. For me, of course, this was quite a schlep from Bristol, but one I was happy to make.
As is customary for me staying in faraway towns and cities, I went up the night before, and made the most of my evening, and early morning, to explore the city, which, although I had visited once before, a year earlier, for a large conference in Harrogate, and posted here in TD 225, 226 and 227.
This selection is reasonably random, but demonstrate the incredible spectrum of door styles and periods. I hope you enjoy them.
More to come from this trip to York. Next week I am away on holiday, so it is far from certain that I will be posting a Thursday Doors, but I will try. Have a great weekend.
If you have made it this far, you probably like doors, and you really ought to take a look at the No Facilities blog by Dan Anton who has taken over the hosting of Thursday Doors from Norm 2.0 blog. Links to more doorscursions can be found in the comments section of Dan Anton’s weekly Thursday Doors post and his Sunday recap.

That’s a great group of photos. I like the variety of doors and I love the details in the brick work, and the exposed timber frame details.

Wonderful photos, Stephen. The stonework on the lawyer’s office is detailed and precise, a different style from the brick and timber frames and just as excellent. I love the multiple doors’ photos and the great sculptural details of grand church entrance in the last photo.
P.S. Is it my imagination, or is that part of a church next door (on the left) in the photo of the white door, brick and timber-framed house?

You are super-observant, that is a church, but a different one.

York seems to show its age and a serious determination to endure! Those modern church doors are a bit jarring but apparently part of that determination.
