Square Behind South Cross Street
The Leadgate miners' cottages were built in squares in the 1840's. The original cottages had no toilets or running water, and the squares contained earth closets, one for every 3 cottages, and a communal pump or stand pipe. They were also used for drying washing, storing coal, dumping rubbish and keeping pigs.
