Thick organic medieval deposits were observed in service trenches dug when laying a telephone cable in Gallowgate, between St Paul Street and Upperkirkgate; pottery, leather, slag and bone were recovered. No evidence of earlier street surfaces was noted as the ground was totally disturbed by existing service trenches.
