York Historic Environment Record

The existence of these stables is a reminder of the major role played by horses on the railway and in towns. This extremely rare survival of a large stable range is illustrative of its original function despite later conversion to other uses. They have a visual and functional group value with the old Goods Station, now the National Railway Museum, and the adjacent Coal Manager's office. Of High Historical & Evidential Significance. Nominated for inclusion on the Local List of Heritage Assets.
