Coney Street A Journey through History in Pictures
Coney Street is one of York's main shopping streets, where familiar high street retail names cater as much for locals as for tourists. Some of the buildings in the street are timber-framed structures. Coney Street runs along the course of a stretch of Roman road which lay just outside the Roman fortress and which ran almost parallel to the eastern bank of the River Ouse. The earliest record of Coney Street's name is in 1213 when it was called Cuningstreta, deriving from the Viking word Konungra and straet - a street. Konungr means king - thus it was King's street. Coney Street was once divided into three stretches - Old Coney Street to the north of St Helen's Square, Coney Street in the middle and Little Coney Street to the south. Old Coney Street is now called Lendal, and Little Coney Street is now called Spurriergate.
The Mansion House, located where Coney Street meets Lendal in St Helen's Square is the official residence of the Lord Mayor of York and was built 1725-27 by John Etty. It has an interesting collection of city regalia including a 15th century Sword of State and the Great Mace of 1647.
The medieval church of St Martin-le Grand is located on the south side of Coney Street. Its recorded history goes back as far as the Domesday Book but the church was severely damaged during a World War Two bombing raid in 1942. The church's tower (1427) was originally the south western tower. Some interesting stained glass can be seen within the church, but much of the building is rebuilding of the 1960s. A pretty clock protrudes from the church exterior overlooking shoppers in busy Coney Street. It dates from 1668 but was given a new dial 1778. A model of an Admiral with a sextant stands on top of the clock.

You may be interested to know that the memorial stone, together with an interpretation board that explains the background to the flight, the crash and the aircraft's crew, will be erected at its permanent site sometime in the autumn of this year [2012]. Lancaster ED 549 crashed north of Plungar just beyond the Grantham Canal and what is now the disused railway line. The canal towpath is the nearest available public access point that is close to the crash site and is because of this the memorial will be installed about three hundred yards along from the road bridge on the Plungar-Granby road.

Listen to a simulated concert in St. Mary's Abbey | Science News
Only ruins remain of St. Mary’s Abbey in York, England. But Damian Murphy and colleagues built a computer simulation to restore the acoustic grandeur of the 16th century church. A recording made in an echo-free room begins the piece. The acoustics of another cathedral, York Minster in England, are applied after 8 seconds, and the music becomes more reverberant. At around 22 seconds, the acoustics is changed to match that reconstructed for the ruined abbey.
