6 King's Square is a historic building in the city centre of York, England. Dating to 1587, and built for Richard Hutton, it is now Grade II listed. At the time of the building's listing by Historic England, in 1983, its address was 5 King's Square. It became number 6 in 1997.[1]

The building is located on the western side of King's Square, and formerly faced Holy Trinity Church, up until the church's demolition in 1937. It is adjoined on the right by the 19th-century 12 and 12A Church Street.

In the first half the 20th century, the building was home to the Porter Vaults, a public house owned by the Leeds-based Tetley's Brewery.[2]
