Kirkdale Archaeology undertook a minor piece of work in the base of David's Tower examining the old Postern Gate. Examination showed that the construction of the Half Moon Battery had envelped and burried the South end of the old curtain wall, leaving the Postern Gate in a void deep below the castle.
