Full Description

Beneath Russell Street the pipe trench revealed well stratified Medieval and post medieval deposits consisting of occupation layers, floors and walls. These deposits were very similar in appearance to those excavated some 75m to the north-east on the Townwall Street garage site. It is possible that well-stratified archaeological sequences extend further along Russell Street.(1-2)
