- Title
- P5496 Utility trench, Navigation Road, York
- Description
- No deposits, buried structures or features of any great archaeological significance were noted during this watching brief. Along the northern part of Navigation road it was apparent that a good deal of landscaping and dumping, almost certainly associated with the construction of the modern flats in the area directly overlay, at least in places, natural clay and that any archaeology, apart from deep cut features, had been destroyed. In the central and southern parts of Navigation Road any coherent archaeology had also been destroyed, this time by the insertion of various modern services. The archaeological potential of the area remains, therefore, uncertain although it is probable that towards the southern end of Navigation Road archaeological stratigraphy of some note may survive.
