(c) the Bishophill Area bounded by the River Ouse, City Wall between Skeldergate and Micklegate, Micklegate and Bridge Street. thereby revoking the existing 30 mph speed limit imposed by virtue of the standard of street lighting applying in the respective roads and lengths of road subject of proposal; 2. The proposal at paragraph 1(a) does not extend to: (a) Roads and lengths of road having an ‘A’ or ‘B’ road classification those roads being the: A1237 York Outer Ring Road, A19 York - at Bootham, Clifton and Shipton Road and the A1036 York – Museum Street, St Leonard’s Place, Gillygate, Lord Mayor’s Walk, Monkgate, Heworth Green and Malton Road; B1363 York – Clarence Street and Wigginton Road.

Objections or other representations specifying reasons for the objection or representation should be sent to me in writing to arrive no later than Friday 9th May 2014. Dated 11th April 2014 Frances Adams, Interim Assistant Director (Highways, Transport and Waste) West Offices, Station Rise, York YO1 6GA Email: [email protected] CITY OF YORK COUNCIL THE YORK SPEED LIMIT (AMENDMENT) (NO 14/1) ORDER 2014 STATEMENT OF REASONS City of York Council, in furtherance of their policy of minimising obstruction and congestion and improving road safety and local amenities whilst at the same time balancing residential and commercial considerations, are satisfied that it is desirable to: Introduce a 20mph speed limit into roads within an area to the north of central York to the extent set out in the Notice of Proposals. The area to the north of York is sub-divided into sub areas to more readily and conveniently identify roads subject of proposal within more localised community areas. The respective areas are, so far as possible, bounded by roads unaffected by the proposals. Lengths/areas of road subject to an existing 20mph speed limit are included within the respective sub-areas and where such a limit exists on any road or length of road forming a boundary road to a sub-area then that road or length of road is identifiable as being within an adjacent sub-area. ‘A’ and ‘B’ class roads serve as primary/priority routes for both commuter and servicing traffic and to minimise any adverse effect on traffic flow these routes are unaffected by the proposals. ‘C’ class and unclassified roads serving a like purpose have been similarly considered and, where appropriate, excluded from the proposed 20mph speed limit. This approach is considered desirable to balance safety with the expeditious movement of traffic including timetabled local bus services. Whilst environmental considerations will influence a driver’s attitude to speed containment it is considered that the introduction of a 20mph limit with associated signage will encourage drivers to adopt an appropriate speed within the limit thereby promoting safe and considerate driving and improving the quality of life for the local community - this being a key objective for both the Council and Department for Transport when determining local speed limits. .

  • The Walls but on the Rampart Underneath and the Ditch Surrounding Them
    A walk through 1,900 years of history The Bar Walls of York are the finest and most complete of any town in England. There are five main “bars” (big gateways), one postern (a small gateway) one Victorian gateway, and 45 towers. At two miles (3.4 kilometres), they are also the longest town walls in the country. Allow two hours to walk around the entire circuit. In medieval times the defence of the city relied not just on the walls but on the rampart underneath and the ditch surrounding them. The ditch, which has been filled in almost everywhere, was once 60 feet (18.3m) wide and 10 feet (3m) deep! The Walls are generally 13 feet (4m) high and 6 feet (1.8m) wide. The rampart on which they stand is up to 30 feet high (9m) and 100 feet (30m) wide and conceals the earlier defences built by Romans, Vikings and Normans. The Roman defences The Normans In AD71 the Roman 9th Legion arrived at the strategic spot where It took William The Conqueror two years to move north after his the rivers Ouse and Foss met. They quickly set about building a victory at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. In 1068 anti-Norman sound set of defences, as the local tribe –the Brigantes – were not sentiment in the north was gathering steam around York. very friendly. However, when William marched north to quell the potential for rebellion his advance caused such alarm that he entered the city The first defences were simple: a ditch, an embankment made of unopposed.

The earliest deposit recorded was a medieval dump, dated to the mid 12th century or later. This was followed by further dumping of probably late 14th century date, and a more complex structural sequence including a well preserved circular brick oven. The top of this oven survived to a maximum height of 0.6m below the modern ground surface. The demolition of the ovens was followed by the construction of a series of brick and limestone walls. These may either be of late medieval or early post-medieval date and two of them included large blocks of re-used worked masonry. These blocks are likely to have originally been parts of a substantial medieval building.

Three broad phases of archaeological activity were identified during the excavation. The earliest phase consisted of a series of medieval dump or tipped layers interspersed with several small cobbled surfaces. In the second phase, this sequence of tip layers had been cut away to the north by a large rectangular pit of post-medieval date, filled by a deposit of building rubble containing large quantities of broken decorative plaster mouldings.
