Description

The evaluation trenches revealed a small number of archaeological features, totalling six undated linear features and a single pit. Machine excavated trial pits within the evaluation trenches close to the River Foss produced evidence of organic deposits beneath the uppermost natural geological deposits; these deposits were not observed within trenches situated on higher ground away from the Foss.
