Don't think the archeoligical dig would have removed all the remains unless it was necessary for foundations.
Anyway the present builders were obviously afraid Lyn would come and take all their bricks !
 
It's actually for the redevelopment of Centenary Square.

This photo from the library was taken at the beginning of July 2017.



And this was at the beginning of May.

 
The lost photos originally posted by Astoness and retrieved by Oldmohawk from Photobucket in post #104 have now been replaced into the individual posts. Viv.
 
thanks horecart..could possibly have been part of the canal basin...just a guess

Does anyone know if there is currently any archaeological work going on in the Square ? Think we need to make it clear to readers as this thread was originally started to show the archaelogical dig in 2009. Can anyone tell from Ell's and Horsencart's images ? Thanks both for keeping us in the picture about developments there. Viv.
