Abstract: |
York Archaeological Trust undertook a watching brief on behalf of LHL Group intermittently between the 5th and 17th of October 2016 on groundworks associated with a small scale housing development. The principle on site contractor was Crossman Ltd. The site was situated to the rear of a former car dealership on the east site of Railway Street, Slingsby, North Yorkshire, YO62 4AH (NGR SE 6985 7497). The site covered an area of approximately 0.1 hectares, within which the area of monitored ground works totalled c.31.5m2. Where encountered natural sands were found at a depth of approximately 1.0m BGL. Homogeneous plough soils were found overlying natural deposits. This plough soil was found to extend to all of the interventions, varying between 0.55m - 0.75m in thickness. In addition the presence of previous yard surfaces and associated 19th and 20th century activity was apparent across the central part of the site where the percolation test pits were positioned. |
