Fairfax House

Fairfax House is a Georgian townhouse on Castlegate, built in the early 1740s and remodelled inside by the architect John Carr from 1761 for Charles Gregory, 9th Viscount Fairfax. York Civic Trust restored it in the 1980s after use as a club, a building society and a cinema, and it now shows Noel Terry's collection of 18th-century English furniture and clocks.
