Comments on: Former WMC, and Tuke family home http://yorkstories.co.uk A resident's record of York and its changes Wed, 05 Mar 2025 17:45:53 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.38 By: YorkStories http://yorkstories.co.uk/buildings/lawrence-st-wmc-tuke-house/#comment-289524 Wed, 29 Oct 2014 22:15:17 +0000 http://yorkstories.co.uk/ten/?page_id=1790#comment-289524 I’m not sure who owns the former Tuke home on Lawrence Street. I will ask on Twitter if anyone knows, or you could try emailing planning.enquiries@york.gov.uk. I think owner information can also be found via the Land Registry website?: https://www.gov.uk/search-property-information-land-registry

http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=125586&strquery=tuke

– it’s a long page but if you scroll down just past half way to number 38, it should be highlighted in green.

Hope that’s helpful,
Lisa

I have owned Bishophill House in Bishophill Senior for 36 years now and I know the Tuke family occupied it. I wonder if they had it built. Parts of it date back to 1740 I think. Do you know where I would get more information? Sincerely, Charles Stuart
