Peasholme Green

Peasholme Green is a street on the eastern edge of the city centre of York, in England.

The church of All Saints lay at its southern point from at least 1200 until its demolition in 1590, while a chapel dedicated to St Martin is believed to have lain on its north-western side, with an associated cemetery.

In 1955, Stonebow was constructed to link to the south-western end of the street, and the road layout was altered, it assuming a more uniform width.

[1] The street runs north-east from a junction with Stonebow, Aldwark and St Saviour's Place, to the York city walls at Layerthorpe Bridge, over the River Foss.

On the south-east side lie The Black Swan pub, with 16th-century origins; and the King's Pool development, large government offices designed by Keith Mackenzie-Betty and completed in 1994.
