Mint Yard Lectures The title of the series comes from the land on which York Explore Library now stands in Museum Street. Originally the site of a monastic hospital, following the dissolution of the monasteries the land was granted by Henry VIII to Sir Arthur Darcy, Sir Thomas Clifford and John Bolles in 1544.

The land later reverted to the Crown, who established the Royal Mint on the site between 1546 and 1553. Whilst its use as the Royal Mint was relatively short-lived, the site continues to be known as the ‘Mint Yard’ today.

For details of the current programme, or to purchase tickets, please speak to a member of staff in any Explore library or visit the Inspire website (www.feelinginspired.co.uk).
