Day 4 another scorching day. Well by North Pennine standards anyway.
All three trenches will be starting to look at lower layers tomorrow once all of the photogrammetry has been completed.
The 4 images are showing: Trench 3 top left, Trench 4 top right and bottom left, and Sue and Julia working in Trench 5.
Trench 3 has already had the photogrammetry taken allowing random post medieval demolition stones to be unpicked from the eastern end. We are hoping that both trenches 4 and 5 will have more archaeology beneath the current layers. |

Trench 4 extension being cleaned today |

Trench 5: The western end of this scooped rectangular platform will soon be photographed. The eastern end of what we originally thought was a second cell, is still looking problematic. |
