Description
An evaluation excavation, comprising two small trenches, was undertaken in the cellar of 104 Micklegate, York, between 21-23 May 2014. The excavation revealed what appear to be Roman-period deposits immediately beneath the brick floor of the seemingly 18th-century cellar, including what may be make-up for a road, associated with pottery ranging in date from the mid/late 2nd to later 4th centuries. The end of what appears to be a stone coffin or sarcophagus was observed, built into the north-eastern end of the south-west wall of the cellar.
