South Bank & Dringhouses

About

South Bank sits on the south bank of the River Ouse just west of York city centre, with Scarborough Bridge linking the riverside to the station and lines that run out of the city. The area mixes housing, small workshops and riverside paths that follow the river curve; foot and cycle routes make the river edge a direct route into the centre. Local streets step down to the water and there are pockets of industrial land tucked close to the railway corridor.

Dringhouses lies a little further south-west along Tadcaster Road, with a compact high street of shops, cafes and services clustered around the junctions. Green space is never far away: Dringhouses borders the Knavesmire open ground and York Racecourse, and short bus runs connect the area to the centre. The road into town provides a clear route for commuters and local traffic, while residential streets behind the main road include a mix of housing types and community facilities used by families and older residents alike.
