The information panel of this wall put:
esp: "En la Carta Puebla de Navia, otorgada por el rey Alfonso X el Sabio entre 1270 y 1284, se concedía fuero a los vecinos para la construcción de una muralla de protección para la nueva pola. El perímetro amurallado apenas superaba los quinientos metros y se extendía desde la calle de Las Armas hasta la de San Francisco. Su construcción, que inició un tal N. de Oviedo (según Tirso de Avilés), se demoró o no se concluyó hasta el siglo XVI. Actualmente, sólo se conserva un pequeño lienzo de mampostería, de unos 15 metros, en la calle Mariano Luiña, antes denominada Tras la Cerca. Sobre su sólido basamento, se construyó en el año 1692 la Casa de Coaña, con dos arcos de medio punto, en chapacuña, encima del muro y otros dos a cada lado, que formaban el soportal de la casa."
eng: "In the Puebla de Navia Charter, granted by King Alfonso X the Wise between 1270 and 1284, jurisdiction was granted to the residents for the construction of a protective wall for the new pole. The walled perimeter barely exceeded five hundred meters and stretched from Calle de Las Armas to Calle de San Francisco. Its construction, started by a certain N. de Oviedo (according to Tirso de Avilés), was delayed or not completed until the 16th century. Currently, only a small canvas of masonry, about 15 meters long, is preserved in Mariano Luiña Street, formerly called Tras la Cerca. On its solid basement, the Casa de Coaña was built in 1692, with two semicircular arches, in chapaco, on top of the wall and another two on each side, which formed the arcade of the house."
