NS 68777 59354 A watching brief was carried out during works to replace the access bridge structure at the entrance to the donjon tower, from December 2018 to March 2019. Monitored work included the uplift and ground reduction of the existing slabbed pathway, the excavation of a foundation trench for the new bridge structure, the removal of a modern lime concrete screed at the donjon entrance, and the removal of rough racking along the top of the chemise wall to allow the removal of a modern metal balustrade. No archaeological remains were uncovered in the excavation.
