York Historic Environment Record

A wall foundation forming part of a significant building in the Colonia was found at this site. A mortar surface may be a floor surface and may be contemporary with the structure associated with the wall foundation. The pottery assemblage recovered from the layers is thought to have accumulated against the proposed wall, suggests an early 3rd century date for the construction of the wall. The proposed wall appears to have been robbed out at some point during the late 3rd to early 4th century.
