From the Wikipedia article
The Knavesmire is one of a number of large, marshy undeveloped areas within the city of York in North Yorkshire, England, which are collectively known as Strays. Knavesmire, together with Hob Moor, comprises Micklegate Stray. The York Tyburn, the site of a gallows administered on behalf of The Crown by York Castle, was situated in the area adjacent to the Tadcaster Road. It has been suggested that the name 'Knavesmire' may share a derivation with Knaresborough—Cenward's mire.
