Saint Margaret Clitherow , her shrine that so many people walk past is a quiet haven in the lunacy of the queues for Harry Potter and the ghost shop . She lived in the Shambles her husband was a butcher , she was put to death for her beliefs by the regime of Elizabeth the first
Thank you for sharing Susan. Margaret Clitherow’s story is such an important part of the history of the Shambles. It’s fascinating to think about her life in the Shambles as the wife of a butcher, and the courage she showed in standing by her beliefs, even in the face of such a tragic fate under Elizabeth I's reign. It’s a poignant reminder of the rich history that lies behind the charm of York's streets, often overlooked by those drawn to the modern attractions. Thank you for highlighting this meaningful piece of history!
There's something so charming about those narrow streets and the historic buildings! 🏰 The small shops add to the unique character of The Shambles-it's like stepping back in time. Glad you enjoyed the tour! 😊
Yes, the market in The Shambles adds such a great vibe to the area! 🛍️ It’s full of unique shops, local goods, and some delicious treats. Definitely a must-visit when you're in York!
Definitely! The Shambles is such a unique street, with its incredible medieval architecture and those iconic overhanging buildings. It's like walking through history!
Absolutely, the Shambles really does feel like a step back in time! It's such a magical place with so much history and charm. I'm so glad you enjoyed the walk. 😊👍
I love The Shambles. Definitely a must place to visit when in York. A visit before everything opens is worth it to see it like this, followed by a hot drink in a nearby Cafe, then back when the shops are open - be prepared that it might be very busy then 🙂
That sounds like the perfect way to experience The Shambles! 😊 A quiet morning stroll before the crowds arrive really lets you soak in the history and charm of the street. And of course, a cozy café break afterward makes it even better! You're spot on-by midday, it can get pretty busy, but that's part of its charm too. Glad you love it as much as we do! ☕️🛍️
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the tour and found it informative. Poor Margaret Cleathrow indeed - it's always interesting to learn about the history behind these places! Appreciate the support, and I hope you enjoy any future videos too. 👍😊
You're right! It can get quite crowded, especially during peak times. But even with the hustle and bustle, The Shambles still has such a magical atmosphere. It’s definitely worth the experience! 😊
