The National Monuments Service's description

Archaeological testing (00E0763) c. 20m S of the SW angle of the castle revealed a section of an E-W paved path (L 3.6m E-W; Wth 0.6m) and a pit (diam. c. 1.25m; D 0.5m) (RO027-048015-) (Grant 2003a; 2006), but archaeological testing (00E0762; 02E0310) of adjacent areas further S and W produced no archaeological material (Grant 2003b; 2006; Zajac 2004).
