York Historic Environment Record

On the 7th April to the 8th April 2016, York Archaeological Trust undertook a watching brief at 11 Park Street during the construction of a conservatory at the property. The site lies within the City of York Area of Archaeological Importance. The work involved hand excavation of a 4.0m x 4.0m area within the backyard of the property to a depth of 600mm. These works were monitored by an inspection on commencement of work, followed by a visit during the course of the excavation. No archaeological remains were encountered, and the excavations would not impact below thick build-up deposits. At this point it was agreed with the City Archaeologist John Oxley that no further monitoring of works was required.
