Robin Hood Tower
Robin Hood tower on the York City Walls is not an original feature. It was added in Victorian times and is a Victorian interpretation of what a good mediaeval tower should look like. You get to the tower from Monk Bar or Bootham Bar. From the tower is a superb view of York Minster.
