Four trenches were excavated on 5 December 2018, following two test pits in October 2018. Trenches 3-6 were positioned to excavate the areas of foundations for the proposed temporary viewing and interpretation platform, decked access walkway and outside seating. The remains of the curtain wall were uncovered in each trench with evidence of 3 gun slits. The wall is constructed of granite rubble with cream mortar and was 0.6m wide.
