Advantages: Quiet churchyard with picnic benches, still relatively unknown

Disadvantages: Gates are sometimes locked

Holy Trinity church is a lovely little oasis of calm in the centre of busy York! It's one of those places that is mostly known to locals and visitors who seek it out - tucked away off of Goodramgate I often pop in when I get a chance. The churchyard is one of my favourite places in York (my hometown) to pop in with a sandwich - the hog roast sandwich shop is just down the road, and there are a number of benches in the churchyard which make it ideall for a cheap and relaxed picnic stop!

The inside of the church is beautiful as well, it still has the original family pews, which are rare in York. It's location makes it a much quieter and more spiritual place than the Minster.

Also, useful to know if York is busy like it is this weekend, there are two entrances to the churchyard, making it a hand snickleway between Goodramgate and I think it must be Petergate. No hoardes of tourists to push through!

Summary: One of the best places in the city centre for a lunch, or to stop and look inside a historic church.
