Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd. was commissioned by Natural England to undertake archaeological mitigation works at Kilpeck Castle Herefordshire prior to the proposed structural stabilisation works. 14 trenches were excavated to allow for emplacement of ground anchors on top of the motte. In situ medieval deposits at a depth of c.0.3m below ground level were encountered. Evidence for a potential in filled cellar was uncovered within Tr. 5. A significant rubble spread was observed across site, sealing the medieval occupation layer, possibly associated with the 17th century demolition of the castle. |
