Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken as part of the York Castle Museum Concourse Project. The excavations involved the removal of an existing internal stone-slabbed and concrete floor and excavation of trenches to a maximum depth of 0.90m below existing ground level. Although existing services had truncated archaeological deposits in specific areas, archaeological deposits and features were observed within each of the trenches. The most significant feature was a rough limestone rubble wall foundation, recorded in the base of a trench. This foundation was aligned north south and is likely to represent a building predating the early 18th century construction of the Debtors' Prison. |
