Doors 341 – Doors from the City of York (Part II), June 2024
Having spent a week away on a glorious holiday, I am now paying the price, with an avalanche of emails and backlog of work projects and requests keeping me very busy indeed. This afternoon I head off to Cornwall to run a workshop on Friday, leaving me little time to work and prepare blog posts, so I wrote this one last night.
Back to some doors from the City of York, which is a truly incredible place if ever you get the chance to visit, but I would advise going during the spring or autumn, because it can get very crowded indeed in peak tourist season.
This set of doors were photographed during a random walk between the hotel I was staying at and the government office where I was having a team meeting. I hope you enjoy them.
More from York next time, may I wish you a happy weekend from a very damp Bristol.
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.

These are wonderful doors, Steve. That gateway arch at the end is amazing! I’m guessing the light colored area in the first photo was filled in at some point. In any case, it’s quite an impressive structure. I hope you can relax and catch up over the weekend.

A wonderful view of York, thanks for sharing your walkthrough of the city streets, Stephen. Love the Red House, so much to like from the various architectural styles to the evidence in stone shapes and colors of the great work of restoring the building. Nice to see these buildings restored and put to good use. Love the windows and the panel or doors behind them.
P.S. Is that a double-decker bus at the edge of the photo of the Red House, on the far left? I have only ever seen red ones before…awesome!
