Monument record 10929 - Post medieval features at Delamere Street

Archaeological investigations at Delamere Street in 2004 identified traces of post medieval activity possibly representing medieval to post medieval settlement activity. The evidence consists of the remains of a cellar structure of a mid to late 18th century date built against an earlier, undated, sandstone wall [4] from test pit 2 that may represent a boundary line extending back from Upper Northgate Street.

Further evidence of boundary features were excavated nearby from test pit 3, however, these appear to be of a later date. (1)
