NT 3780 6830 The area resistance surveys reported in DES 2006, 105 and 2007, 128 were continued to the S of the castle with a further 5200m2 surveyed on level ground above the E–W step in the field. Significant high resistance lines run E/W with angled resistances at the ends. Lesser features run from these lines N towards the castle. A further linear high resistance, which turns through a right-angle, goes beyond the SW corner of the survey. The alignments suggest ecclesiastical structures.
