Description
The work was undertaken for City of York Council (CYC) to fulfil a planning condition for the Castle Gateway Project (Castle Gateway Project Planning). The work was based on an Archaeological Scheme of Investigation produced by CYC, and a subsequent RAMS produced by YAT. The works involved the excavation and recording of two 2m x 2m hand-dug trenches
The upper surface of the medieval rampart was identified beneath a series of 18th- and 20th-century deposition layers.
