Time for tea

Not Simply Red

St Helen's Square, named after the church just behind the pianist, is a popular spot for street musicians or buskers. Busking is encouraged in York, but you have to apply for permission and abide by certain rules.

In the background is Betty's of Harrogate, tea rooms so famous that people queue in the cold waiting for a place!
