The Hole in the Wall sits squeezed between the towering stone walls of York Minster and the bustling streets, marked by a low, inconspicuous doorway that leads down into cellar foundations. It occupies the former basement of a fourteenth-century house, where the original stone rib vaulting still supports the ceiling. A local legend claims that condemned prisoners from the nearby jail once passed through a hole broken in the cellar wall to share a final drink before their execution at the gallows.
