Clementhorpe, YORK, YO23 1PN

Part of a housing development of 1979, otherwise known as Bishops Wharf, designed by the York firm Crease Edmonds Strickland (now Crease Strickland Parkins). It is situated between Bishopsgate Street and Clementhorpe, with this length on Terry Avenue overlooking the River Ouse. The southern part of the site was originally occupied by confectioners Joseph Terry and Sons, who had bought the area in 1862. It had previously been the site of the Clementhorpe Brewery, before becoming part of ironworks of Messrs Calvert & Son, ironfounders, who had become bankrupt in 1862. The site was the centre of Terry's confectionery business, making use of the river for raw materials and fuel, until they moved to their purpose built works on Bishopthorpe Road in 1926, but they then continued to use it after the move until the 1970s. The northern part of the site was previously occupied by a fertiliser factory (old maps mark it as a "chemical manure works") run by a firm named Richardsons. It closed in 1973 following the firm's takeover by Hargreaves Fertilisers Ltd. On the far left is part of Waterfront House (see Image). Moored on the river on the left is a converted Dutch barge named Morgenster and on the right is another converted barge, the MV Till.
