Spent the weekend at a family wedding just south of York. Visited Cawood on the river Ouse. It has an old bridge that used to turn for river traffic. There are the remains of a palace of the Archbishop of York.
Here Cardinal Thomas Wolsey lived. He was arrested for high treason in 1530 and died on his way to London. This is believed to be the origin of the Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme.
