Abstract: |
The site was situated on the line of the former defences of the Scheduled Ancient Monument, Whittington Castle, and it was considered possible that significant archaeological remains associated with the medieval castle may have survived on the site. The top of the fills of one of the defensive ditches around the outer bailey of the castle may have been exposed at the base of the pits dug for the foundations of the new pergola. No other significant archaeological deposits or features were disturbed or damaged during the excavation of these pits, which otherwise encountered made ground and yards of 18th century and later date.
