- Bayley Lane is a historic street in the centre of Coventry and is thought to follow the line of the outer ditch or bailey of the former Coventry Castle, founded by the Earls of Chester between 1088 and 1147. The economic stagnation of the city between the dissolution of the monasteries in 1540s, and the 19th century has enabled several medieval buildings and underground remains to survive. During extension work on Herbert Art Gallery and Museum (completed in 2008), excavations by Birmingham Archaeology found evidence of occupation in Bayley Lane from as early as the 12th century, and also stone foundations of numerous 14th-century buildings. The excavation also uncovered numerous 19th-century buildings, some of which had been built on the medieval foundations. These included a 14th-century cellar which is now incorporated into the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum. A rare medieval chess piece, thought to be the first of its kind in the region was also unearthed. (en)
