A0450 Haymarket Car Park, Peasholme Green A large pit, presumably for clay extraction, had been filled in the late Roman period.

The church was closed in the mid 16th century and the remains burnt for lime. A weighbridge for the 19th century hay market was recorded beneath the modern car park surface.

A0168 St Mary Bishophill Junior A photogrammetric survey of the church's west tower was carried out. The tower was probably built to a single design in the third quarter of the 11th century. The masonry from which it is constructed is mainly re-used from earlier buildings, largely Roman, although there are also a number of fragments of Anglian and Anglo-Scandinavian funerary sculpture. A series of putlog holes suggests the scaffolding system that was used during construction. The tower was repaired on many occasions but, in particular, it is argued that the interior arrangements were completely re-organised in the later 15th century, probably as a result of the replacement of an original bell.
