Monument record TR 15 NE 1646 - Medieval Postern, Queningate, City Walls, Broadstreet
Summary
A new postern at Queningate (the small entrance in use today) was made c. 1448-9 and a bridge (later called 'Deans Bridge') was made across the ditch. The old entrance at Queningate seems to have gone out of use and was eventually blocked in 1468, probably when there were fears of attack from France.
