Gate to Holy Trinity - Goodramgate

even this gateway to Holy Trinity in goodramgate is suffering from trees growing on top of the gate, There is a Buddleia growing in the left hand side of the gate.

Book Clearance - Goddramgate

This one of my favourite places to visit, it is one of those shops that sells clearance books at a discount price, very popular with the whole family as a source of Christmas presents as we all like a good read. We have sometimes ended up with duplicates though!

HSBC - Parliament Street

Not a particularly interesting building but it does dominate this corner by the fountain in Parliament Street. It is very much a modern functional concrete box. I wonder if might become as detested as Stonebow house as it weathers.

Straker's Passage - Fossgate

I couldn't decide which of these two photos to use so I ended up using both! Straker's Passage runs from Fossgate to the back of the telephone exchange where you can link with Black Horse Passage or continue to the right around the end of the telephone exchange into Hungate. The area around Black Horse passage had a disreputable reputation with numerous pubs and brothels and was demolished during WWI and the Stonebow road driven through.

Foss Upstream from Blue Bicycle

I was tempted to stand on the pedals of the Blue Bicycle parked outside the Blue Bicycle in Fossgate for this shot but ended up taking the shot through the decorative spindles of the bridge. The willow tree is in the small park behind the telephone exchange and you can just make out the top of the Rowntree Wharf building just off centre.
