York is famous for its many pubs, most of which have an intriguing tale or two to tell.

In this video we’ll be visiting five such taverns and examining their long histories which, amongst other things, include a ghostly moggy, a pub with an important link to Guy Fawkes, the smallest pub in York, and the grizzly tale behind the name of the Wonky Donkey…

I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on this selection of historic inns and, if you’d like to suggest other London pubs of note for future episodes of this series, please do let me know in the comments!
