Abstract: |
A watching brief and limited excavation at New Quay Road, Whitby, produced well preserved evidence of occupation on the west bank of the River Esk, dating from the 12th century onwards. Successive reclamations extended the occupied land further into the river from the late medieval period onwards. Well-preserved environmental evidence indicated a medieval population with a varied diet. Finds from post-medieval reclamation material points to the presence of a number of crafts, including metal-working, in the vicinity at that time. [Au] |
