Two ugly buildings for the price of one! Dominating the view over the rooftops of Aldwark from the city walls is Hilary House, almost as ugly Stonebow House in the background. When considering ugly buildings most people in York forget about Hilary House which looks down one of nicest streets, St. Saviourgate. Several of my "Doors within the walls" photographs are of doors in St. Saviourgate. I suppose that it could be perversely argued that the houses in Hunts Court were not designed in sympathy with their surroundings of Hilary House which predates the houses in the foreground. I would place Hilary House as the third most ugly building in the city.
