NY08SE 7.01 081 822
NY 081 822 In October 1996 a hole measuring 0.8m E-W by 0.75m N-S was excavated in order to erect an information board on the N edge of the car park to the N of the castle. Excavation of topsoil and loose stone stopped at a depth of 0.8m at which point archaeological levels were encountered. The surface exposed comprised three level sandstone blocks aligned E?W set in a matrix of charcoal-rich orange-brown clay.
