York Historic Environment Record

An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at 60 Goodramgate, during ground reduction works associated with internal refurbishment. The site lies within the historic core of York, fronting Goodramgate — a principal medieval street laid out in the 12th century and historically associated with Lady Row (constructed in 1316). The findings suggest that No. 60 Goodramgate represents a Georgian-period rebuild of an earlier medieval plot, with below-ground evidence for earlier phases incorporated or sealed during later construction. This sequence reflects the long-term continuity of urban occupation along Goodramgate, where medieval street plots were redeveloped and adapted through successive centuries while retaining their original layout and commercial character.
