Knavesmire, the site of York's Racecourse is reputed to have been the marshy land or area where knaves or felons were executed. The original racecourse stand dates from 1964 but part of John Carr's Grandstand of 1754 remains. The City of York traces a fascinating history back to Roman and Viking times. Today it is a bustling city growing as a commercial, tourist and regional centre. A fine range of restaurants, shopping opportunities and attractions including the Jorvik Viking Centre and National Railway Museum as well as the history of the Minster, Castle and City Walls, supplements Yorks extensive selection of excellent hotel accommodation.
