NT 2599 7345 The remains of a post-medieval wall were uncovered during the clearance of demolition/construction material from a vault forming part of the structure below South Bridge. The structural remains consisted of an E-W mortared stone wall with a hearth built into its S face. The area to the S of the wall comprised a floor of large square (unglazed) ceramic tiles. The wall belongs to a building pre-dating the construction of South Bridge (1785-8).
