P5338 Utility Trenches, 14 Agar Street, York
Item
- Title
- P5338 Utility Trenches, 14 Agar Street, York
- Description
- Three trenches dug by machine for the connection of services to a new development were observed and recorded during this watching brief undertaken on 22 February 2010. The majority of the deposits recorded from the trenches were clearly modern but Contexts 1000 and 1002 may have been slightly disturbed build-up deposits. No dating evidence was recovered for these deposits but previous work in the immediate vicinity has shown that similar deposits can be dated to the broadly medieval period. The cobbles, 1006, seen in Section 3 almost certainly represent a previous road surface of uncertain, but possibly 19th century, date. Overall it is believed that no archaeology of any great significance was disturbed during these works.
