Thursday doors – 22 January 2026 – City of York

Doors 339 – Doors from the City of York (Part I)

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.

I am Stephen. I live in Bristol, UK. I decided to shorten my profile...to this: Wildlife, haiku, travel, streetart, psychogeography and my family. Not necessarily in that order.
