Description
In 1957 the building work at the Co-op on Long Wyre Street was extended to the premises immediately south (apparently No's 13 and 15 Long Wyre Street). The majority of the pottery recovered was from 17th century, when a rubbish pit (or pits) had been cut through the Roman level, but there was also a little Roman of 1st century date, according to Hull. <1>
