The Archaeology of Medieval Scarborough Excavation and Research 1987–2004

Little remains of the large and important town which stood in the shadow of Scarborough's imposing castle in the Middle Ages. Nearly 20 years of excavation and historical research by the Scarborough Archaeological and Historical Society have, however, reconstructed the main features of what was a vibrant centre of mediaeval urban life. This book describes that research and analyses it to build up a comprehensive picture of what the town looked like between 1150 and 1550.
