Image: © J G Harston Taken: Unknown
11-12 Grape Lane, 164-162 Church Street Crossgate cottages, built in 1635. Timber framed and jettied cottage with rendered masonry filling. One of a continuous run of three houses along the Crossgate section of Church Street. The corner property has been extensively rebuilt to the same design as original due to progressive collapse in the early 20th century. Grade II listed. Subject of Yorkshire Vernacular Buildings Study no. 1380. The car park on the left is the site of Tin Ghaut, favoured haunt of artists, demolished in the 1950s. The brick gable-end visible behind the car park is the Captain Cook Museum, housed in John Walker's house, where Captain James Cook lodged as an apprentice.
