Description Description contains history

Bootham Bar

Bootham Bar is built on the site of a much older Roman gateway in the City Walls at York, the earliest pieces of the remaining structure dating from the 11th and 12th centuries. In medieval times, guards were posted here to guide travellers through the dangerous Forest of Galtres to the north of the city.
