The Oggy Oggy Pasty Company yesterday opened a shop in Shambles, York, creating four new jobs.

Franchise owner is Mark Dunwell, 45, who said: "As a fan of pasties, I thought it would be a good addition to the range of food on offer in York.

"Shambles is one of the most visited streets in Europe, and bringing the Cornish pasty to York will expose it to both a local and international audience."
