York Historic Environment Record

A watching brief was carried out during initial groundworks for a new rearward extension to the above property. The building dates from at least 1770, with a C19th rearward extension. An area 3.10m x 3.60m x 0.60m deep was excavated for a concrete foundation raft, made necessary by extensive C19th drainage works. The only feature of archaeological interest was 7 courses of the stepped, brick-built footing for the C19th extension, visible below the extant wall in the northern corner of the trench, for which no construction cut was discernable due to subsequent disturbances.
