Wooooo!! YCK rule

i didn't know there is a police station at Clifton moor

Part (44 acres) is now managed as a nature reserve - Clifton Backies LNR. Some of the paths and buldings still remain but others had to be demolished for Health & safety reasons. http://www.york.gov.uk/environment/Parks_and_open_spaces/Nature_reserves/cliftonbackies/

Actually many of the 'gate' streets may be named after the professionals who worked there as 'gate' may come from 'gata' which is Dutch for 'street'. Thus many copper workers and traders lived on Coppergate, stonemasons lived on Stonegate and presumably Huns lived in Hungate. I don't know what sort of people lived on Lowe Ousegate (Low Ousers?), although this could mean 'Ouse Street'. Walmgate is probably named after its equivalent gate in the city walls.

Isn't this The Charles?

It's actually Skeldergate bridge

Now NXEC

Location of a massacre of 150 Jews in 1190, the keep is a monument to this.

It also seems to have more streets named after former gates. It is a very historic city, and a popular tourist destination. You are right: it has the longest amount of remaining walls, but they are not as complete as the walls of Chester.

This garage is shown too far northeast.

The station is located on the East Coast Main Line, where the Leeds Branch rejoins. It is also the terminus of the Scarborough and Harrogate lines. The station has 11 platforms, with all but 9-11 being inside the Victorian trainsheds. It is served by GNER, Virgin Trains, Northern Rail and Transpennine. GNER operates the station.

In the care of English Heritage and open to the public. Good views of York and the Minster from the battlements. See: http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/server.php?show=ConProperty.362 See: http://www.cliffordstower.com/ See: http://www.theheritagetrail.co.uk/castles/cliffords%20tower.htm
