MODEEN YORK. 156 Thomas, who held this see in the reigns of William I. and II., were discovered ; forming, when found, the wall of a stable ! In two of the niches are seats most favourably placed. Great changes have also taken place at the west and south-west of the Minster. Peter prison, or Hall of pleas for Peter Liberty, which stood near the west front, was taken away in 1839, when this part of the Minsteryard was considerably extended, by the pulling down of a great number of houses. The row of houses which extended from the end of Belfrey's church to the top of Little Blake-street, have been altogether removed. Petergate and Minster gates have been widened ; and at the south-east end of the Minster some new and handsome buildings have been erected, at a respectful distance. In 1828, St. Peter's School was erected, near the site of the old deanery, close by Trinity church, Goodramgate ; and a row of houses was taken away, to allow of the formation of grounds open as far as Minster yard. The eastern end of the Cathedral is yet blocked up with a row of houses, within a very short distance of it ; but Dean Cockburn, who must have the credit of the various improvements connected with the Minster, which are enumerated, made, in 1839, a proposal to the corporation, to take down all the houses from the east end to Good ramgate, and thus afford something like an adequate view to strangers entering York through Monk Bar, of what may be justly called, the finest window ever seen by the eye of man. The value of the property, for the present, has placed a bar to this project. The walks and foot paths about York have also been greatly improved of late years. New gates for foot passengers have been placed to the various fields all around the city, through which there were foot-paths, for the health and recreation ofthe citizens. Several obstructions, improperly placed by occupiers, have been removed. In some instances, ancient foot-paths have been restored, and these fields are now passable for women and children. Taken in connection with the
156 ANCIENT AND various restorations and recent erections in all parts of the city, the facts here mentioned are sufficient to show, that the spirit of improvement has not been inactive in York. * eEIecttoni for the Cttt> of gorft.
