Abstract:
York Archaeological Trust carried out an archaeological evaluation in May-June 2001 in two trenches (trenches 8 and 9) in the eastern part of Union Terrace car park. These followed on from an earlier evaluation of the western side of the car park. Archaeological deposits dating from the medieval to post-medieval periods were observed in both trenches. Trench 9 revealed parts of a substantial building that spanned the 13th-17th centuries, together with evidence for the subsequent robbing of this structure. This structure was believed to have originally formed part of, or an annexe to, a church. A period of abandonment and 19th century residential development was also recognised. Trench 10 uncovered evidence for medieval-earlier post medieval dumping and demolition followed by a period of abandonment and subsequent residential development in the 19th century. None of the deposits observed were waterlogged though they were largely free from later destructive intrusion. It was reasonable to assume that the bulk of the medieval-early post-medieval deposits in both trenches related to the Carmelite Friary, St. Mary's Hospital and St. Peter's School that were documented as occupying the site. The major features encountered in Trench 9 could have been related directly to those revealed in an excavation carried out in 1972. [Au(abr)]
