Fairfax House

Image: © Gordon Hatton Taken: 8 Feb 2009

Perhaps the most famous house in York and a fascinating place to visit. John Carr was certainly responsible for the interiors and probably for remodelling the exterior around the same time. Restored 1982-4 by York Civic trust after years of neglect and use as a cinema and dance hall.
