During the day you’ll find it set up as a restaurant (though I’ve never actually eaten here!), but at night it’s transformed to an 80s dreamland!. The ‘Kennedy’s DJ’ plays some of the best 80s, 90s and noughties music you’ll ever find in a club."

"High on the isthmus between the old town and castle, St Mary’s is a Grade I listed church, first erected in the 12th century. That building was mostly lost in Civil War in the 17th century, and was rebuilt at the end of the 1600s. Out in the sprawling graveyard you can find the ruins of the old west towers, which give a sense of how much larger the Medieval church used to be."

"Rarely does one come across a church with so much personality. The 15th century building, hidden away from the hustle and bustle of the town, has a marvellous architectural design. The Goodramgatearea comprises of some of York’s oldest structures."
