York Minster, the most iconic sight, starts at 1.42. No fpv in this one.

Monk Bretton Priory was founded around 1150 by monks from Cluny, France. Most substantial are the remains of the west range and the gate house.

Brodsworth Hall is still intact and sports an interesting inside and a huge garden (that makes it a bit hard to fly near to the house especially in rather strong wind). It was built 1860 and handed into state care in 1990.

Spofforth Castle was more of a fortified manor house than a castle - still quite a bit standing of this 13th century place.

York Minster is the second most important cathedral in England - after Canterbury. The first church there was from 627 - nothing remains. What we see today dates from the early 13th up to the late 15th century. Interesting foundations are shown as well.

Of the royal castle of York the only part left is Clifford's Tower which as been redone on the inside in a rather modern manner.

Last stop on this day is Kirkham Priory. founded 1122 and nicely set on the banks of the River Derwent. There are substantial remains of the gate house and the southern and western parts of the cloister buildings.
