Abstract:		 Archaeological monitoring and recording was carried out by Oakford Archaeology between July and September 2022 during works at Launceston Castle, Launceston, Cornwall. A watching brief was maintained during works associated with the installation of seven new interpretation panels. The work required the excavation of four new postholes (PH 1, 3, 4 and 6), six existing postholes (PH 2, 7-11) and the making good of one existing posthole (PH 5). These measured on average 0.3m wide and were excavated to a maximum depth of 0.73m. Monitoring of the works has shown that the deposits cut through by the postholes were either modern in date, in the case of the replacement of one of the existing interpretation panels (PH 2), motte deposits redeposited during the creation of modern paths (PH 1) or landscaping associated either with the creation of the park in 1840-2 or during the period 1943-65 (PH 3-11). Nothing of significance was found
