Test Pit Survey (7 September 2014 - 2 November 2014)
Despite conclusive results from a geophysical survey no structural remains were uncovered in Lady Kitty’s garden in any of the four test pit excavations. The observed features were mid 20th century dumping and deep infilling of the garden. It is possible any earlier structural features would be encountered at a deeper level and would require a larger excavation to take place.
