NR 86760 68717 The community survey undertake at Tarbert Castle in February 2013 has recorded details of the upstanding remains. While few new features came to light during the survey within the castle walls, an area to the S of the inner bailey had several faint traces of ditches or enclosures. As yet, it is not known whether these are associated with the use of the castle or with the possible medieval burgh. A geophysical survey was also undertaken within and around the castle, by Northlight Heritage Archaeoloy, hinted at the presence of buried features in same area and focusing on this area during any future excavation may reveal their age and function.
