We went back to the ruins today to try and get some footage for a film for the website. The public have access to a section of the ruins which formed part of the courtyard walls. Although small, this section includes examples of the external stone work, sections of a pillar and vaulted ceiling - and possibly includes part of a prison chamber! We're hoping to point all this out in the film - so watch this space!The very helpful man who showed us around also took us to the entrance to the larger of the excavation sites which uncovered part of the castle wall, gatehouse and the drawbridge pier. Sadly, because of the build up of gases underground, this site is not accessible to the public and a ramp has now been built over the entrance.
