I don’t often get time to be a tourist in #York. Although I’m only a mile from Micklegate Bar and 2 miles from #YorkMinster, it’s nice to walk the longer ways round and enjoy many of York’s green spaces along the way.

As a big Warhammer 40K fan, one of my favorite things about touring the UK and going to a lot of cathedrals is seeing the visual inspiration for the game in real life.

Modern mosaic commemorating St. William, beside his tomb in the crypt at #YorkMinster. He was Archbishop of York from 1141-47 & 53-54, before dying as a result of suspected poisoning. Note the geometric patters on the Norman columns, the remains of which are nearby. #MosaicMonday

York Minster Cathedral has been the center of Christianity in northern England since the 627. Most of the current structure dates between 1220 and 1472. The west front window features a distinctive heart-shaped pattern. #photography #travel #tourism #york #england #church #yorkminster #heartofyork

Horn of Ulf, on display in York Minster. Gifted to the Minster by a Norse lord named Ulf in around 1030 as a deed of transfer of lands that he had given to the church. It’s an elaborately carved elephant tusk- incredibly exotic & valuable in 11thC.

I don’t think I will ever tire of these views from the York City Wall. There are so many layers of history and stories to explore in every direction.

Emperor Constantine famously proclaimed Roman Emperor at York in 306 CE, with it possible to view remains of Roman York deep beneath York Minster (with Roman street level several metres below current level).
Here are remains of Roman fort, along with decorative plasterwork

York Minster’s Doomstone. A rare survival from the Norman Minster on the site, it depicts the mouth of Hell, with sinners being pushed into a boiling cauldron by demons. #yorkminster #doomstone #mouthofhell #medieval

A composite image of a total #LunarEclipse I shot over #YorkMinster. I'm fairly confident it was 25 years ago (16th July 2000) but my file has very little metadata. Minster scene shot on 85mm, Moon on 400mm, using a Nikon D1.

My three girls with Paddington at York Minster as the sun goes down on the Summer holidays. I'm feeling refreshed, grateful for friends and family, and I've also got that bounce in my heels that means I'm ready for some new writing.
