More about this scene
The magnificent sweep of York station dates from the completion of the Doncaster-Selby-York line. Opened in 1877, the station allowed through running of trains. The old station it replaced lay just within the city walls; its site and layout were such that trains had either to back in or out of it.
Other Memories from York
my grandparents and great grandparents married in this church and lived in the Stonebow and Pavement area.My great-grandfather and his father sold humbugs in the Shambles market:
In the early & mid 50's as a lad I spent my weekends working in the boatyard by the bridge.
As you look at the picture it was downstream of Kendal bridge on the left. Access was through the arch on this side of the bridge.
A selection of rowboats & a motorboat river cruiser that did afternoon runs to Bishopthorpe Palace.
A start to a life of over 40 years at sea or involved in the maritime world that included over 22 years in the maritime branch of the Army.
Oh happy days.
