Guy Fawkes Inn — Birthplace of Treason
Our story of treachery begins at the Guy Fawkes Inn, birthplace of York’s most infamous figure.
Beneath ancient beams and flickering candlelight, you’ll step into the world of secret plots and deadly conspiracies.
Here, we trace Guy Fawkes’ path from a boy of York to the architect of one of England’s most daring acts of rebellion — the Gunpowder Plot.
Dark secrets and whispered betrayals await, as we delve into the heart of a scheme that could have changed the course of history forever.

Clifford’s Tower — Where Rebellion Fell
At Clifford’s Tower, York’s brutal past is written in stone and blood. From Robert Aske’s doomed uprising to Roger Clifford’s tragic fall, this is a place where rebels died and kings tightened their grip on power.

Come on into The Guy Fawkes Inn on High Petergate at 7pm. If you're early tell a member of staff that you're there for the tour, and they will take care of you until the tour begins. I'll be in the bar area, hopefully recognisable from my yellow coat and my pictures from this listing.
