Cynthia Harrod-Eagles Quote
The Yorkshire was something of a landmark, and facing it across the river was another, Botterill’s Horse Repository, a startling and ornate building in red and yellow brick. Here the gentlemen who rode or drove into York could leave their horses. The stalls were arranged on several storeys, with ramps leading up from floor to floor – the equine equivalent, Teddy supposed, of one of those new blocks of ‘flats’ one heard about in London – and if York grew any more crowded, they would all end up living on top of each other, like the horses, he thought.
