York Historic Environment Record

The evaluation excavation located evidence of a Roman structure and a sequence of ditches of early Roman date some 0.30m - 0.40m south-east of the main Roman road to York from the south. An earlier cobbled road surface was observed in a watching brief. There was an absence of later Roman and Anglo-Scandinavian deposition. Shallow build-up and a rubbish pit represented the use of the area in the medieval period.
