P.G. Laver's excavations in 1931-33 revealed 'many burials' within the area of the Castle chapel (MCC2084), but there was 'nothing to indicate that any burials were associated with the chapel' (Drury 1983, p.333). The burials had been interred after the demolition of the chapel, barbican and forebuilding and are thought to date from the late 16th to the 17th centuries when the Keep was used a prison.<1>

A Wesleyan Methodist chapel was built behind, and to the south of, the street frontage of Culver Street in 1835. In 1970 the Culver Street church was closed and sold for redevelopment as part of the Lion Walk shopping precinct.

The location of this workhouse is recorded on the 1st Edition 1:2500 map (1874-1887), as the 'Old Workhouse', today as 'Keeper's Cottage'.
