Description
This appraisal provides an initial review of the archaeological potential of the remains
discovered during redevelopment at the former North Eastern Railway Company Offices, Toft
Green, York. These remains were spread throughout a number of trenches located at various
points across the whole site area and included distinct archaeological trenching along with the
monitoring of small-scale linear excavations for drains and other services. The remains
unearthed on the site span many periods of the City’s development from the Romano British
period, through the post Roman phase into the Medieval period and right through to the
present day. These trenches revealed important evidence to further understanding of the
sequence of urbanisation and changes in the organisation of land use through an extended
period in the history of York.
The report is an interim appraisal of the excavations and does not include plans or OD values. Presumably the funding for the post-excavation assessment work has not been forthcoming.
