York Dispensary


There is so much lovely detail in the small portion of the building shown here. The City of York shield with the five lions, the dates 1788-1899, and the mix of glass and brick lights above the door. It was formerly the entrance to the York Dispensary, a fore-runner of the NHS. A couple of weeks ago the building was covered in scaffolding, presumably for cleaning, so I look forward to seeing what emerges once it is removed.
