York has between 20-30 cats located on building in and around the city. They may have originally been intended to scare away pigeons from roosting on ledges but now are purely decorative. Anyone planning a trip to York and wishing to follow the cat trail can find more information at: catsinyork
This white cat, seemingly gazing at its reflection in the lantern, can be found on a building in Gillygate.
I love this idea! I just returned from a holiday in England and being a long time Coronation Street watcher, I mentioned to a friend in London that I had seen a great ginnel while out walking. He had no idea what I was talking about!
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten about these cats, its been a while since I was last in York. I love this one.
ReplyDeleteHope you had an enjoyable holiday in the UK RedPat. Look forward to maybe seeing a pic of York on your blog if you passed through on your travels up north!
