Abstract/Summary

A watching brief was carried out during extensive groundworks. Several minor features were observed amongst much modern disturbance. Some evidence was recovered regarding the form of the Outer Moat, and the line of its now infilled northern route. Remains of a massive and probably medieval stone structure were revealed on the inner edge of the Outer Moat. The remains of another stone building were also identified..
