What is recorded here
This yellow commemorative plaque records: Carr's Lane. Formerly known as Le Kirke Lane, Kirk Lane or Kirkgail (13th Century). Later re-named Carr's Lane, possibly because John Carr, distinguished architect and Lord Mayor of York, lived in a large residence on the North-East corner of the Lane. Recorded plaque organisation: York Tourist Development Association.
