NT 3262 9466 A programme of archaeological excavation and recording was completed at this house, which forms part of a terrace of workers' cottages, believed to have been erected in the early 19th century. The interior was recorded prior to its complete renovation, and excavations were completed within the basement. The evidence suggests that the structure is multi-phase, and has seen conversion from a large, single occupancy house to its latest period of use as a flatted tenement.
