Known for its unique, overhanging timber-framed buildings, it was once home to butchers, poulterers, and other tradespeople. The name "Shambles" itself is derived from the Old English word "scamel," meaning "shambles" or "slaughterhouse." This photograph, from the London Midland and Scottish Railway Collection, now held at Historic England Archive, provides a fascinating window into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the people of York during the early 20th century.
