Monument record TR 15 NE 1603 - Medieval occupation/industry, The Old Cattle Market, Upper Bridge Street
Summary
Several Medieval layers were found, the most significant being a very black irony layer c. 5cm thick which contained coal and 14th century sherds. There was a small hollow in this in which a crucible was found: metal working may have taken place in the area. Below the black deposit was brown earth, beneath which was a hard well-trodden flat surface.
