Abstract
Rural retreat
Amanda Clarke
4 - 11
Report of an evaluation exercise at Bramham Park, West Yorkshire, as part of a project to restore eighteenth century landscaped gardens where documentary evidence was lacking. It revealed what had been a relatively short lived cascade leading from the Obelisk Pond.
Road works
Mark Whyman
12 - 20
A hundred metre area on the proposed A19 diversion to the south east of Easingwold was assessed. Fieldwalking produced some pottery, including some of Iron Age date, but geophysical prospection of the same area found nothing of significance. However, exploratory excavations revealed an Iron Age round house of the post--in--trench variety. The landowner also drew attention to a Neolithic stone axe found on the site.
Top boffins in dig probe drama
Richard L Kemp
21 - 25
Proposed development site in Beverley revealed a ditch rich in organic deposits and at least ten medieval skeletons. The area is known from documentary sources to have been the site of a Preceptory of the Knights Hospitallers, founded in 1201 and ending with the Dissolution in the mid-sixteenth century. It is hoped that foundation plans can leave the remains intact, if not there may be a need for full excavation.
A right revetting read
Kurt Hunter-Mann
26 - 29
A report of an evaluation in the Carmelite Street area of York comprising seven boreholes and three 3m-square trenches. The boreholes came upon a thick layer of alluvium possibly the result of damming the Foss to form a moat round the Norman castle in York, whilst the trenches recovered the remains of a revetment which possibly formed part of a quay. Carmelite Street covers part of the King's Fishpool site, which was half its original size during this period. Debris from the dissolution of the Carmelite friary had been dumped into the King's Fishpool. The subsequent gardens were built over by nineteenth century brick tenements. See also Oakey 92/681-2.
Friars, murder and rubbish: the Carmelite friary and Hungate
Christopher Daniell
30 - 34
Discussion of historical records contributing information on the Carmelite Street site and surrounds.
The Air Photography Unit in York
Robert H Bewley
35 - 39
As part of RCHME's decentralisation an air photography office was set up in York. Concerned with aerial reconnaissance, photographic interpretation and mapping, it is aiming to redress the balance in this form of evidence by improving coverage of the north of England. Currently concentrating on the Dales project, the next area of study will be Lincolnshire.
A head start towards the last judgement
C P Graves
39 - 44
Examines possible iconography portrayed in medieval window glass from the Gilbertine priory of St Andrew, Fishergate, depicting a head with a stylised band around it possibly representing a crown of thorns. The most obvious conclusion, that it is a portrayal of the crucifixion, is discarded on the basis of comparative evidence which depicts the Last Judgement.
