York Record Shop Walk
Five very different shops spread across the old city: a Fishergate record-and-book shop, a courtyard shop on Goodramgate, two on Gillygate and a cafe-bar on Micklegate.
Walkable · 5 stops · about 1.3 miles. Every stop is close enough to walk. The whole route is about 3 miles or less, so you can leave the car behind. What do route types mean?
