Converted school on Long Street
Built in 1841 as the British and Foreign School and now used for commercial purposes. This could still be an attractive building, but the modern entrance [left] and the large area of tarmac rather spoils the scene.

Disused Filling Station, Thirsk
On the old A19, this filling station has stood empty for a very long time as evidenced by the price at 68p per litre of "four star" - predating unleaded fuel, when you got two or four star petrol.

Old milepost
The furthest north of mileposts remaining on the road from York to Thirsk. It is thought this style of post was cast at the Norby Foundry between 1835-60. ('Thirsk Past and Present' by Wyan and Foggitt 1980. Page 6). Although leaning slightly it may be fixed to a large stone or piece of concrete under soil level. It is on the raised verge on Ingramgate between the old main road and a service road in front of the houses. It is special because of the sheep & lamb, the drover and the crest which were on the original casting.
