The Shambles
One of the most photographed streets in England! The Shambles is one of York's oldest medieval streets. This narrow cobbled street originally housed butchers shops now home to many small curiosity shops. The original wooden beams and slabs in front of the windows can still be seen. The wooden buildings overhang the street so much you could shake hands with your neighbour opposite! At the top end The Shambles opens up into Kings Square where street entertainers wow the crowds. Dave's Hog roast shop near to Kings Square is very popular, where you can get really tasty hot roast sandwiches! Also there is a fish & chip shop on Petergate close to King's Square.

The Little Diamond Shop opened in York on 15 Lendal during Christmas 2010. The shop takes its name from the original name given to its sister shop, Ogden of Harrogate, by its founder in 1893. In fact, the clock from the original Little Diamond Shop takes centre stage in the shop as a proud reminder of the company’s history.
As a sister showroom to Ogden of Harrogate, the shop reflects Ogden’s heritage but gives it a contemporary look too. Traditional elements such as Edwardian display cabinets have been mixed with a bolder decor to give it a more modern feel, while maintaining the sense of luxury associated with the company.
The Little Diamond Shop stocks many of the brands and jewellery collections that regular customers to Ogden of Harrogate will recognise and in addition several exclusive collections including Sarah Jordan jewellery and Technomarine, Fortis, Mondaine, Cuervo y Sobrinos, Manometro and Carl F Bucherer watch brands.
