Upgrade Your Medieval York Wardrobes With My Sliding Wardrobe

York is home to beautiful Georgian architecture and is the go-to destination in the north for visitors with an interest in history. With over two thousand years of history, this city has retained lots of its original architecture, which attracts over 7 million tourists year on year to visit famous landmarks, including York Minster, which was built over the course of 250 years and is known as one of the most beautiful gothic cathedrals in the world.

York oozes endless charm and visitors to the city can find themselves getting lost in the quaint little pockets such as Europe’s most visited street – The Shambles. This street encapsulates the city’s historic atmosphere and had a big influence on writer J.K. Rowling who based the iconic Diagon Alley in her Harry Potter series on this very street. It has retained its fame for this, by the introduction of three Harry Potter themed gift shops. 

The word ‘York’ comes from the Viking name for the city, Jórvík, so we cannot forget the famous York’s Roman ruins and Viking remains which appear amongst the charming English architecture, fantastical tales can be told throughout every brick and beam. 

Outside of the historic city, York residential housing is bursting with character. Voted ‘best city to live in by the Sunday Times in 2018, York’s rich in culture and heritage, a vibrant modern city still making history and this transpired through into people’s home decor. 

With scenic lifestyles and the countryside right on the doorstep, York is one of the most sought after places to reside, with a 23.9% increase in population in the last 20 years and 7 new housing developments due to go live in 2022.
