Abstract: |
This report describes the results of a single archaeological trial trench evaluation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on Land at York Engineers Triangle (NGR SE 59456 51730) between the 15th and the 17th December 2014. The evaluation identified a segment of exterior wall, 1.6m in length, of a roundhouse constructed by Thomas Prosser in 1864. This roundhouse consisted of an 18-sided polygon design, with a central turntable and radiating stalls with associated inspection pits. These roundhouses were used to store, maintain, clean and repair railway locomotives. The principal result of the evaluation was the recording of the 1864 roundhouse wall segment [008]. The findings are in keeping with the results of previous excavations in York Engineers Triangle. |
