Abstract:		 From November 2003 to February 2004 York Archaeological Trust conducted an archaeological evaluation at Heslington East, Heslington, York. The site lies some 3km to the south-east of York City centre close to Heslington village and incorporates within it part of a glacial moraine and also part of the low lying Vale of York basin. This evaluation involved the excavation of 115 trenches, the siting of which was determined by a series of geophysical surveys undertaken from September 2003 to February 2004. The evaluation was carried out for Casella Stanger for the University of York. Three areas of high archaeological significance (Areas A1-A3) were identified as well as seven areas of secondary significance (B1-7). The archaeology within these areas included a peat bog, possible Neolithic and Bronze Age settlement, an Iron Age round house and enclosures, Iron Age and Roman field systems, a probable Roman villa with a heated bathroom, a Roman road and possible areas where Anglian settlement may exist. No evidence for the use of the site during the Anglo-Scandinavian period was recovered. During the medieval, post- medieval and modern periods the site has been used for agriculture. A backfilled post-medieval pond, with good organic preservation as well as a modern quarry hole were also recovered.
