10 and 11, Shambles, Medieval commercial building in The Shambles, England

Numbers 10 and 11 in The Shambles feature timber-framed construction with overhanging upper floors and traditional medieval architectural elements throughout the structure.

The building, originally constructed in the 15th century as a single structure, was divided into two separate tenements around 1730 with subsequent brick wall renovations.

The structure stands as a testament to medieval English craftsmanship, displaying traditional construction methods and materials common among York's commercial buildings.

The current retail spaces at 10 and 11 Shambles house specialty shops, including The Potions Cauldron and British Wool & Cashmere establishments.

The upper floors of the building extend outward over the street level, following a medieval design that protected merchandise from rain and maximized living space.
