From this private courtyard, you can see two historic properties; Treasurer's House on your left, and Gray's Court straight ahead. Together they formed the residence of the Minster Treasurers from the 11th century to 1547. Still called Gray's Court after the family who lived there for almost 200 years, the area is divided by Plane trees which were planted in cities as they could withstand the soot-laden atmosphere of Victorian cities.
