Could that have been built alongside a riverbank?
Ooo She's sharp is this one. Yes it is the result of a stream, which flows from the Plantation Mill area as Pleck Brook, crosses Abbey Street and joins the Hyndburn beneath the Market. Well done Willow, another coconut! What are you going to do with them all?

BTW is that why Pleck Rd got its name? Not that we have Pleck Rd much these days.
Guess so. There was, if I remember, a farm or something on the site of the market which also carried the name. Atarah remembers the dip in the ground between upper Peel Street and Broadway as also carrying the name.
