15 and 16 Fossgate is a historic building in the city centre of York, England.
The building was constructed as a house in about 1600. It is timber-framed, and both upper floors are jettied to the Fossgate front. It was originally one room deep, with a staircase behind, but in the late 17th century a brick wing was added at the rear. This has at times served as a separate tenement, known as "Morrell Yard". It is accessed through a passage on the left side of the ground floor, which has a door with a late-17th-century hood. Inside the building, some timber framing is visible on the ground floor, and there is a rebuilt brick fireplace. The building was Grade II listed in 1954. It currently houses a shop.
