York is apparently the most haunted city in England. That I can believe, little streets with names such as ‘…formerly Mad Alice Lane’ really sets the scene!
I visited York for the amazing architecture and was not disappointed. Such a range of lovely quirky, old, new, big and small buildings. There were a few in particular that we almost found ourselves looking out for more than others. There seems to be an architect that designed quite a few buildings in York that had a bold signature for onlookers. Can you see the cat in my illustration? That is not a real cat. That’s right – he included a sculpture of a cat on each of the buildings he designed (I’m saying he, it may of been a woman also!). It was fun to be looking out for these sweet additions to the structure of the buildings.
Have you been to York and seen the cats?
