Joseph Terry Cottage - Skeldergate
This neat little cottage standing in the grounds of the Lady Anne Middleton Hotel in Skeldergate is known as the Sir Joseph Terry Cottage. Sir Joseph Terry was the grandson of the founder of Terry's chocolate factory, sadly closed down and no longer providing employment in York.

Sir Joseph Terry - Skeldergate
This plaque commemorating Sir Joseph terry of the chocolate firm in York and grandson of the founder. Sir Joseph Terry was Lord Mayor of York four times. The plaque is located on the end of the Sir Joseph Terry Cottage in Skeldergate. As Skeldergate may be a little off the beaten track for some tourists I have included a map below.
