Abstract: |
A watching brief was maintained during the excavation of a small trench against the exterior southwest corner of the curtain wall at Corgarff Castle. The purpose of the excavation was to locate the inlet for the castle well shown on an 18th-century plan. There was no evidence found of the inlet but the excavation did reveal the foundations of the southwest corner of the 18th-century star shaped curtain wall. Photographs show that some of this wall was rebuilt in the 1960s but it became clear that the southwest corner of the curtain is of 18th-century build. |
