Abstract: |
Archaeological excavation was undertaken in 2004 at Guildford Castle prior to the creation of new floor and external staircase. It revealed a limited amount of evidence for the foundation trench of the Keep, cut through the original motte make-up. No other certain medieval features were identified. There seemed to have been extensive disturbance outside the west face of the Keep in the 18th century and/or earlier, to a depth of 25cm or more. The interior of the keep was found to have been disturbed to a considerable depth in association with its later 19th century refurbishment. [Au(adp)] |
