Abstract: |
Trent and Peak Archaeology was commissioned by Nottingham City Council to conduct a geophysical survey within the Outer Bailey of Nottingham Castle, Nottingham, centred on NGR SK 56985 39485 at a height of c. 45m OD. The work was carried out between the 7th and 18th April 2014 in accordance with standard, accepted practices for archaeological geophysical surveys (EH 2008). As Nottingham Castle is a Scheduled Ancient Monument, a Section 42 licence to undertake the survey was obtained by TPA from English Heritage. The site was composed of a single area covering approximately 1Hectare within the Outer Bailey of Nottingham Castle, Nottingham. A suite of geophysical survey techniques were employed, earth-resistance, geomagnetic, and ground-penetrating radar were successfully employed to image buried archaeological features and to determine the location and depth of the interface between superficial deposits and the bedrock. |
