  • Stop 1. Soldiers on Every Street Corner: the War Is Announced in York
    Stop 1. Soldiers on every street corner: the war is announced in York Stand in front of the Yorkshire Museum, on the steps looking out into the Gardens. During the First World War, newspapers were the main source of information for the public, explaining what was happening at home and abroad as well as forming the basis for pro-war propaganda. In York, the building that currently operates as the City Screen Picturehouse, later on you will see it between stops 4 and 5, was once the headquarters of the Yorkshire Herald Newspaper. In 1914 there were around 100,000 people living in York, half of the city’s current population, and York considered itself the capital of Yorkshire and the whole of the North of England. The Local newspapers did not wholly prepare the city’s inhabitants for Britain entering the war, as the Yorkshire Evening Press stated soon after war had been announced that ‘the normal man cared more about the activities of the household cat than about events abroad’. At the beginning of the 20th century the major European countries were incredibly powerful and had amassed great wealth, but competition for colonies and trade had created a European continent rife with tensions between the great powers. June 28th 1914 saw the assassination of the heir to the Austro-Hungarian Empire Arch-Duke Ferdinand and his wife Sophia while on a diplomatic trip to Sarajevo by a Yugoslav Nationalist who was fighting for his country’s independence. This triggered the chain reaction which culminated in war between the European powers.

  • Environment and Activity in the Coppergate Area of York in the Post-Conquest Period: Draft Post-Excavation Project Design
    Reports from the Environmental Archaeology Unit, York 97/2, 22 pp. Environment and activity in the Coppergate area of York in the post-Conquest period: draft post-excavation project design by Keith Dobney, Allan Hall and Harry Kenward Summary Following assessments of the bio- and geoarchaeological potential of samples of deposits of post- Conquest date from a number of sites in the Coppergate-Piccadilly-Pavement area of York, a post- excavation project design is presented. It is proposed that, in addition to reconstruction of the implications of the data at the context and feature level, there should be emphasis on analysis of change through time (especially in the period following the Norman Conquest), of use of space, and of relationships between functional areas in this crucial area of the city.

  • This Northern England City Called York Or Jorvik, During the Viking Age, Is Quite Medieval in Terms of Cultural History
    History of York, England This northern England city called York or Jorvik, during the Viking age, is quite medieval in terms of cultural history. York is a tourist‐oriented city with its Roman and Viking heritage, 13th century walls, Gothic cathedrals, railroad station, museum‐gardens an unusual dinner served in a pub, and shopping areas in the Fossgate, Coppergate and Piccadilly area of the city. Brief History of York According to <historyofyork.org> (an extensive historical source), York's history began with the Romans founding the city in 71AD with the Ninth Legion comprising 5,000 men who marched into the area and set up camp. York, then was called, "Eboracum." After the Romans abandoned Britain in 400AD, York became known as "Sub Roman" between the period of 400 to 600AD. Described as an "elusive epoch," this was due to little known facts about that period. It was also a time when Germanic peoples, Anglo‐Saxons, were settling the area. Some archaeologists believe it had to do with devasting floods or unsettled habitation, due to a loss of being a trading center then. The rivers Ouse and Foss flow through York. <historyofyork.org> Christianity was re‐established during the Anglo‐Saxon period and the settlement of York was called "Eofonwic." It is believed that it was a commercial center tied to Lundenwic (London) and Gipeswic (Ipswich). Manufacturing associated with iron, lead, copper, wool, leather and bone were found. Roman roads made travel to and from York easier. <historyofyork.org> In 866AD, the Vikings attacked. Not all parts of England were captured, but York was.

  • Henry Isaac Rowntree: His Life and Legacy (Reprinted from York Historian Vol
    1 Henry Isaac Rowntree: his life and legacy (reprinted from York Historian vol. 28) Elizabeth Jackson Summary: Although Joseph Rowntree is the name which springs to mind when thinking of York’s great chocolate and confectionery business, the family only got into this field through the initiative of his brother Henry Isaac, whose life and career are explored here. He emerges as a likeable and impulsive character, fully sharing the progressive social and political views of his father and siblings, putting his beliefs into effect through the Adult Schools and York Temperance Society, and even founding a newspaper, the Yorkshire Express, to advance the Radical Liberal cause. Yet he lacked the business brain and methodical approach of brother Joseph, who was ultimately drawn into the cocoa business to get him out of trouble. Figure 1. Henry Isaac Rowntree (courtesy of Bootham School Archives) Introduction. One afternoon in the early eighteen-sixties William S. Rowntree, then a pupil at Bootham school, encountered his ‘cousin’ Henry in a York street, and was taken by him to see a new cocoa grinding machine installed in a small room in his works near the corner of Coppergate and Castlegate. Henry explained his visionary aim - to manufacture something that would come to be essential in every home.1 William liked Henry – his kindness, humour and racy stories made him a hero in the boy’s eyes. And he enjoyed visiting at the house on the corner of Bootham and St Mary’s where Henry lived with his widowed mother Sarah, his older brothers John and Joseph having already married and set up home.

  • Excavations at Rougier Street, York, 1981
    Excavations at Rougier Street, York, 1981 It is not often that there is a chance to excavate inside the Roman colonia, the civilian town. One arose, however, in spring 1981 with the proposed redevelopment of a small site between the Richard III pub and the Leedham's garage on Rougier Street, and by agreement with the architects and developers, Towngate Securities, it was decided to excavate a trench 2.50m wide and 12m long. The archaeological aims of the excavation were threefold: to try to locate a Roman colonia riverside wall; to trace the development of the river frontage; and to look for evidence of the medieval tanning industry. It has been suggested by analogy with Roman London and other towns in the Empire that the Roman colonia had a wall running parallel and adjacent to the River Ouse, but no evidence for one has as yet come to light in York. Whether this wall is found or not, however, it remains the case that very little excavation to modern standards has taken place in the colonia, and any glimpse of Roman deposits would be useful both from the point of view of learning more about its topography and recovering samples for research into its environment. The development of the river front has been glimpsed already in Trust excavation at Skeldergate and Coney Street (INTERIM vol 1 no 1 pp20-21; vol 2 no 3 pp7-11, vol 2 no 2 pp21-6) but there is still much to learn. The medieval tanning industry is, in contrast to the colonia wall, well documented.
