    Someone sent me this picture of a shopping street in the centre of York.
    It is known as The Shambles

    Some of the structures may have changed a bit, as York was heavily bombed in just 90 minutes in 1942.
    84 tonnes of bombs were dropped killing 90 civilians and destroying 9500 houses and buildings.
