NS 3281 7452 As the late 16th-century roof over the North Range of Newark Castle required repair work a watching brief took place in February 2007 to monitor the removal of rubble panels between the ashlar posts of the roof in the S wall. These panels were probably modern repairs or replacements as evidence of replacement and repair to some of the ashlar posts, sole pieces and rafters was found sealed behind them.
