This is one of York’s oldest buildings. They have recently opened a coffee shop in there so you can see some of the interior for the price of a cup of coffee. The Hall is on Piccadilly but you can get to it through the entrance on Fossgate.

Parts date back to 1080 and it is possibly the oldest continuously occupied house in the United Kingdom. It has been the home of the Treasurer of York Minster but is now operated as a boutique hotel, restaurant and cafe. During the day, you can even enter from the walls through their gate. It is a wonderful experience.
