As part of the investigations into Riddle's Court, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), undetaken by Sue Ovenden, took place within the inner court and outer courts with the aim to locate cellars, culverts, drains, wall footings and building remains. A cellar is known to have had in its entrance hatch on the north-eastern side of the Inner Court, but only patchy anomalies were found in this area, suggesting that it had been mostly in-filled. On the western side of the Outer Court a variety of confused anomalies suggest that only shallow remains are present from the buildings known to have previously occupied this part of the site.
