From Fox News: Archaeologists in a historic city recently came across the remnants of an expansive medieval hospital.
The discovery was announced by the City of York Council on June 9. The ancient remains were found in a “void,” or sinkhole, that had recently opened on the street of St Leonard’s Place in York in the United Kingdom.
“The archaeological find was discovered as work was taking place to repair the sinkhole on St Leonard’s Place,” the council said in a statement.
“The void, which is in the middle of the road outside York Theatre Royal, was made safe before contractors and archaeology teams began investigation works.”
Experts believe the site is the remains of St. Leonard’s Hospital — built between the 12th and 13th centuries.
