Abstract: |
An Archaeological Watching Brief was undertaken at Unit 1 Castle Precinct, Knaresborough, North Yorkshire. This work forms a continuing requirement to meet a condition placed on Scheduled Monument Consent by English Heritage. The archaeological watching brief consisted of monitoring the drilling of eight boreholes. The boreholes were designed to inform future engineering strategies necessary to stabilise the building. Examination of the borehole cores has enabled a characterisation of the archaeological deposits beneath the former school building (Unit 1). The location and depth of the north east side of Knaresborough Castle's moat has been revealed. |
