Guildford Museum, Castle Arch

Evaluation by R Poulton of SCAU for Guildford Borough Council, of the site of a proposed extension within the grounds of the museum. Medieval wall foundations and demolition layers were identified within part of the area. A standing wall was seen to have herringbone work, suggesting a 12th century date. This may represent an external wall of the castle, as the trenches north of it revealed only post-medieval material.
