Resistivity
NT 3780 6830 The area resistance survey reported in DES 2006 was continued with a survey on the eastern side of the castle/tower house. Historical evidence indicates buildings in the area (20 x 80m) but the survey showed only irregular high resistance areas that could indicate a varying depth of limestone bedrock. The castle foundations are visible and sit on this bedrock. The eastern door into the castle is some 0.5m above
the present field level, possibly indicating that the area has been excavated for lime stone and the topsoil replaced.
