At least it wasn’t Motherfucker tower 😂

For a serious answer, it used to be a prison. Bitch in local dialect at the time meant similar to nightmare or bad experience, whilst daughter was a bastardised French word for dortour meaning room. Which kinda makes sense.

It’s part of the old York walls.

I loved walking the city walls as a kid. Not to mention the ghost walks and the Jorvik centre! Funnily enough when I dragged my Afrikaans wife to the centre she understood majority of the language snippets played in the village 🙈
