Abstract:		 A geophysical (earth resistance and magnetometer) survey covering part of the inner bailey at Pontefract Castle was carried out as part of a Heritage Open Day. The primary aim of the survey was to demonstrate to the public the use of the two geophysical techniques but also to compare the results with surveys carried out in the 1980s and 1990s. The resistance survey confirmed the results of previous surveys by identifying rectilinear high resistance anomalies which are thought to represent structural remains. The magnetometer survey was hampered by the density of ferrous material within the topsoil, probably due to the importation of topsoil for liquorice cultivation, but did identify amorphous areas of magnetic enhancement corresponding to the possible structural earth resistance anomalies.
