Abstract: |
Resistivity survey was undertaken at Mohun Castle, South Perrot, Dorset, in an attempt to locate any surviving buried features associated with the former castle within part of the scheduled area to the south of St Mary's Church. This was necessary because the Parrett and Axe Parish Council were considering extending the graveyard of the church in this direction. The site conditions proved well suited to the technique and a range of features were located both within and outside the surviving parts of the castle moat. Of these, a number from within the moated area are of likely archaeological significance whilst a number of features beyond, including a possible drainage system, are of less certain, but possibly more recent, origin. |
