Abstract:
In April 2019 the Clwyd Powys Archaeological Trust carried out an archaeological watching brief during the excavation of postholes associated with the installation of a new fence at Longtown Castle in Herefordshire. The castle is a scheduled monument (SM 28886) and the works work undertaken as a condition of scheduled monument consent. Groundworks revealed that there had been a considerable depth of deposition within the inner bailey, probably owing to the use of this part of the site as an orchard after the castle had fallen into disrepair. A section of the defensive wall was revealed in one of the postholes along the eastern extent of the inner bailey. Groundworks on the western side of the inner bailey revealed little evidence for the positioning of the defensive wall at the southern extent, although a considerable buildup of rubble in the soil suggested that the wall had collapsed or been pulled down in order to retrieve building material. Nothing of archaeological significance was revealed during the groundworks upon the motte.
