The cobbles were uncovered by contractors re-building the surface of Bridge Street and West Street as part of major improvements.

According to reports, it was the first time large sections of the cobbles had been uncovered since the 1860-70s

However, they could be ‘covered’ again tonight (Thursday) as contractors start the re-surfacing work.
