Abstract:		 In May 2008 an excavation was conducted by Shrawley Local History and Archaeology Society, at the site of Oliver's Mound, Shrawley. The archaeological investigation consisted of 2 hand dug trenches. Archaeological features associated with the medieval activity on the mound were identified in both trenches. including a substantial set of sandstone structural remains, previously identified during archaeological excavations conducted between 1928 and 1930. The stone structure was in fair condition, and could easily be attributed to a castle building as suggested by the documentary evidence. No immediate dating evidence was collected, but residual pottery recovered from the overlying backfill deposits indicate it was constructed between the 11th and 14th century. The remains of a possible internal cobbled surface were identified, with pottery evidence dating its construction to the later 12th or 13th century. sealing the cobbled surface was a layer of fallen stone roof tiles. The evidence begins to support both the documentary evidence and early twentieth century excavation results indicating the presence of a medieval castle structure on the mound.
