Fieldwork Team
The two main fieldwork phases of mitigation excavation and provisional post-excavation
for Fishergate House (Intervention 1,2 and 4) and Blue Bridge Lane (Intervention
15 to 22), were organised and supervised by Annette Roe and Stephen Timms
respectively. The photographic survey of the wartime prefabricated huts (Intervention
3) was undertaken by Dr Jonathan Clarke; detailed post-excavation and reporting
for the project was undertaken by Cecily Spall, with AutoCad drawings prepared
by Toby Lewis-Simpson, and finds illustration by Richard Jackson. Publication
texts were prepared by Cecily Spall and Nicky Toop. The project was managed
by Justin Garner-Lahire, while the evaluation and mitigation programmes were
designed and monitored by Mike Griffiths of Mike Griffiths and Associates
Ltd.
The field team who were involved in various stages of excavation were as
follows: Andrew Copp, Lars Gustavsen, Richard Jackson, Toby Simpson, Luigi
Signorelli, Malin Holst, Stephen Rowland, Chris Fern, Rochelle Ramey, Peter
Glew, Bjarne Gaut, Rebecca Cannell, Margarethe Felter, Alec Trevarthen, Abigail
Harrap, and Isobel Mason.
Fieldwork was undertaken in accordance with two separate archaeological
mitigation strategies prepared by Mike Griffiths and Associates in response
to respective residential and commercial developments. It was agreed with
John Oxley, Principal Archaeologist, City of York Council that the two sites
be published simultaneously; consequently, this report has merged the results
of excavation at Fishergate House and Blue Bridge Lane. For the purposes
of this final synthesis, the results of preceding archaeological evaluation
programmes at both sites as well as at nearby Marlborough Grove have also
been subsumed into the field account where appropriate and where the evidence
permitted.
