Shared Earth is a delightful little gem tucked just before you reach York Minster. The shop itself is spread over two charming stories and is packed with all sorts of treasures—things you might need, and plenty you didn’t know you did! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, thanks in large part to the lovely ladies behind the counter who are always up for a friendly chat. Whether you're looking for a gift, something quirky, or just want to browse, it’s well worth popping in. Even if you leave empty-handed, the visit itself feels like a small treat.

Wherever I go I always take pictures of shop windows or shops themselves. It reminds me about the region I visited. This shop is one of many I've photographed and I like it. Even if you don't buy anything it's nice to look at and everything is sooooooo tempting that you never know if you don't buy something cute.... I especially liked the felt items and the floral dress!

Fabulous shop with a huge selection. Perfect for gifts or indeed something you just didn't know you needed. Had a good sale section when we visited which was worth a browse for a bargain.

Oh so beautiful!! Such a pretty colorful shop with so many cute things. We just happened to pop in the shop while strolling on the street and we ended up buying wall hangings, books, photo hangings and some decorations. Just loved this shop!
