Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during a programme of gas mains renewal. The principal discoveries resulting from the project included evidence for Romano-British occupation along the frontage of the new Veterinary Hospital and a metalled surface further to the south. The surface could either have formed part of the main Roman road to York or part of a metalled surface relating to a road side property. Post-Roman discoveries consisted primarily of (in the area of the Veterinary Hospital) medieval burials associated with the church of St John the Baptist. These burials, together with others previously discovered in the area, may have contributed towards increased understanding of the layout of the churchyard and of the whereabouts of the church building. As a result of this project, it was possible to conclude that the medieval church was founded on a discrete area of Roman occupation. This may have reflected an element of continuity in occupation at a favoured location, or perhaps, deliberate reuse of the site - possibly to exploit a source of readily available building materials.
