Purey-Cust Chambers is a historic building in York, England. It stands beside Dean's Park, which is overlooked by York Minster. Now Grade II listed, it dates to 1825, and is adjoined to the northern end of the more modern Purey-Cust Lodge. [1] The site it occupies was formerly that of York Minster Stoneyard. [2]

The building was designed in the Gothic style by Richard Hey Sharp for York Minster's Dean and Chapter. It is constructed of magnesian limestone ashlar, with a stone coped slate roof and ashlar chimney stacks. [1]
