South of the River Foss, Clifford’s Tower glowers over the ancient city of York. Now a roofless ruin, flourishes of medieval masonry and sculpted stone heraldry hark back to a time when the castle served as a centre of government for the North. Today, drifts of dancing daffodils bloom here – planted in the Nineties by the American Jewish Foundation to remember the massacre of York’s entire Jewish community eight centuries earlier.
