Bar Walls

From Bootham Bar to this point the medieval wall was built on top of the wall of the Roman fortress. Here the fortress wall turned south west and the remains of the corner tower and part of the Roman wall emerging from under the medieval wall can be seen inside the city walls.
The whole of the southwest and north west walls of the fortress (except near the Multangular Tower) have been obliterated by the extension of the city to the south of the fortress site.
