Abstract:
An archaeological desk-based study was undertaken in order to assess the likely impact of proposed development on any archaeological deposits that may have been present at the site. The study identified that the site of the Cathedral School, lying close to the ecclesiastical precinct and immediately to the east of the Cathedral, was an early 19th century school building which had subsequently been modified in the 20th century. Below ground, important archaeological deposits relating both to an early medieval cemetery and more generally to the layout and occupation of early medieval and medieval Ripon were located nearby. While the truncation of below ground deposits could have occurred on the site due to sand and gravel extraction of the nearby mound of Ailcy Hill it was thought more likely that archaeological deposits survived close to the modern ground surface. There was also a possibility that individual early medieval or medieval burials could have been located there. [Au(abr)]
