Plates from the past year…

‘Commissioned circa 1080 by the first Norman Archbishop, Thomas of Bayeux, Grays Court is probably the oldest continuously occupied house in Britain.’

This wonderful building has survived centuries of change, seen monarchs come and go and watched a city grow around it.

We have an extended list of historical facts on our website, sourced from acclaimed historian L. Peter Wenham’s research.

Head to grayscourtyork.com to read the full list, book your stay, or reserve your table at The Bow Room restaurant.
