| Abstract: |
A watching brief was undertaken during the excavation of manholes and a new drain. Before any archaeological intervention was instigated, however, most of the drain had been cut and parts of the earth rampart leading up to the city wall had been cut back and removed. The site lay with the York Area of Archaeological Importance. It seemed from the sections recorded that there had been a great deal of dumping on the site which had raised the site to its present level. Damp deposits in one trench contained small mammal bones which seemed to suggest a ditch fill of unknown date. The natural sub-soil encountered may have shown the approximate level of the bottom of the Roman/medieval ditch, it being constant around the four sides of the excavation. [Au] |
