Abstract: |
The defences of York are the most complete in England, with the walls set upon high ramparts and retaining their principal gateways. Although the walls are still standing, there has been relatively little opportunity for archaeological investigation, so documentary and pictorial evidence are of paramount importance. The book documents the best of the illustrative material recording the city walls and castles; it outlines the historical background from the pre-Conquest defences to the present day and considers the walls, bars and posterns, the Old Baile and the castle in detail. within each section illustrations are listed chronologically with date, title, artist, medium, location and reference number of the original, together with any explanatory notes. Includes a glossary. |
