Scarborough Bridge from the Museum Gardens moorings. The Museum Gardens moorings on the right are usually regarded as the best place for visiting boats to moor in York. There have, though, been a small number of instances of boats being cast adrift, so visitors would be advised to use a chain, as long as there is no prospect of a flood.
