The National Monuments Service's description
Excavation on the site of the Savoy Cinema on Little Patrick St. and Barronstrand St. during 1992 revealed the fragmentary remains of medieval floors and plots fronting on to Little Patrick St. Eleven levels of activity dating from the mid-12th to the early 13th centuries were represented. These were overlaid by two levels of ironworking activity dating to the mid-13th century and 19th-century walls and drains. (Wren 1994a)
