It is known from excavation on the sub-city site of Tang and Song Mingzhou City in present-day Ningbo, Zhejiang, that the Tang walls of the sub-city were built of rammed earth and surfaced with bricks. The first phase of the Song sub-city wall, belonging to the Northern Song, has brick foundations and a brick-surfaced body. In the second phase, i.e. the Southern Song, the sub-city walls were built of long narrow stones and bricks for the foundations and of brick-covered rammed earth for the upper part, and parts of the walls were survivals from the Tang sub-city. Carefully constructed drains, level grounds and inspection wells were found within the Tang sub-city walls. On the Song ruins, neatly arranged pillars of buildings and brick roads, level grounds, drains and flower terraces were seen in the sub-city. Among the objects unearthed are mainly celadon vessels from Yue kilns, and also products from Longquan kilns, structural members and Persian pottery.
