- Description
- A substantial part of a partly demolished limestone wall was thought to represent remnants of Selby Abbey precinct wall or a building within the precinct. Deposits which may relate to the demolition of the Abbey precinct at the time of the Dissolution were recorded together with levelling which probably was associated with alterations to the street layout made in the 19th century. Organic fills of a pit likely to have been located in the back yard of a property were found to date to the 16th century.
