Discover Huntington

Old Village and All Saints offer a connection to the area’s history; the York Community Stadium Leisure Complex has a different focus. If you decide in advance which places matter to you, you can compare specific hotel offers more effectively. What matters is the actual location stated for each offer, not just the name Huntington.

Old Village and the River Foss

Old Village is Huntington’s main street. The Huntington Conservation Area stretches from Old Village to the banks of the River Foss. Its geographical scope therefore includes both a named main street and the riverside area. For travellers interested in the area’s historic character, these are two distinct points of reference: Old Village anchors the theme in the village, while the riverbank marks the extent of the conservation area.

The Foss Walk adds a route perspective to the riverside setting. For much of its length, it follows the River Foss from Blue Bridge to Oulston Reservoir. This is a different kind of reference point from the extent of the Conservation Area: the Foss Walk follows a river route with two named points of reference, while the conservation area covers the area between Old Village and the riverbank. If you would like to include a walking route in your travel plans, you can use this distinction to separate route planning from exploring the historic village.

All Saints: Building History and Getting There

All Saints church adds a specific architectural detail to the area’s historical interest: its chancel dates from the 15th century. “Chancel” refers to a specific part of a church building; the date applies to that part, not automatically to the entire church. For travellers interested in architectural history, this is a precise detail: the named part of the building provides a specific historical connection.

There is also specific information about getting to the church. All Saints is served by bus route 5 from York city centre, and parking is available at the front of the church. Bus arrangements may change, and you should check the parking information before travelling. So check the timetable for route 5 and the latest parking information before planning your journey. This will allow you to compare both options with your own travel plans.

Stadium and Hotel Search

The York Community Stadium Leisure Complex includes a stadium with 8,500 seats. This figure describes the stadium’s capacity and gives the site’s theme a specific scale. The complex therefore has a different focus from Old Village, the River Foss or the architectural history of All Saints. When choosing a specific hotel, check the location stated in the offer.
