Abstract:		 In April 2015 a community archaeological excavation was undertaken on the river bank at Tadcaster, just north of the church. The site included part of the scheduled monument of the Norman motte which had probably been dug away in the late 17th century. The site had subsequently been occupied by cottages which were demolished in the early and mid-20th century. The excavation, which took place over a two week period, was lead by the Tadcaster Historical Society, assisted by considerable local support and supervision by ASWYAS. The excavations included two trenches and ten test pits. The excavations revealed the foundations of the cottages, but also produced a Neolithic flint, a considerable amount of Roman and medieval potsherds together with a large amount of more recent material, demonstrating that the site had been occupied for nearly 2000 years.
