Back alley off Longfield Terrace, York
A well preserved example of a stone setted back alley with central drainage channel, typical of the region. There is a faded sign on the wall "Way In" which presumably refers to some business activity previously carried on here.

Sewage pumping station, Longfield Terrace, York
This is situated at the lowest point of a group of streets near the river, so presumably the sewage is either pumped back up to a main sewer under Clifton Road, or else under the river since York's sewage works is on the south bank

Viking Raiders in York or Jorvik
A mock battle is taking place in the Museum Gardens, York.
In Viking times York was called Jorvik (the Scandinavians, still pronounce the J as a Y sound, so it sounds like Yorvik).
The grounds were originally owned by the Yorkshire Philosophical Society, for more details see:

The building of the Yorkshire Museum can be seen in the distance for more details see:
