Abstract:
An extensive period of field evaluation was carried out ahead of the upgrading of the Dishforth to North of Leeming stretch of the A1. This report deals with excavations in areas lying within the collection area of the Yorkshire Museum, York. Sites and features of various periods were discovered, amongst them an area of concentrated Early Mesolithic flintworking debris, possibly on a hut platform. The known Roman site at Healam Bridge (SE 3230 8383) was investigated and discoveries demonstrated that there had been considerable activity during the 2nd and 4th centuries within the vicus to the north of the fort.
