Tours of Old York #1: 70s York in Flood
York in flood during (apparently) the late 70s. At about 30 seconds in there’s a lovely shot of a very wet pre-flood defence Marygate. Later on, at around one minute forty, you get a shot along Wellington Row and across the River – notably showing the build that there before the construction of the General Accident (now Aviva) Building. There are also some nice shots of The Kings Arms and the bottom of the Museum Gardens in flood.

Baby, It’s Cold Outside as covered by Nina and Frederik in 1966. And it also happens to be my favourite version of that song.
