Castle Studies Trust Annual Results 2021-22 Trustees Report
Grants were awarded to six applicants, the projects to be carried out during the fiscal year. This round of projects involved a second geophysical survey at Warkworth Castle, co-funding an excavation at Richmond Castle, a building survey at Greasley Castle in Nottinghamshire, and reconstruction drawings of Laughton en le Morthen in Yorkshire. We also funded two projects in Scotland: looking at the impact of climate change on Caerlaverock’s two castles; and dating some original timber in the tower at Old Wick in Caithness. Of these projects three - Greasley Laughton and Warkworth - were completed on time. During the same year the excavation at The Wirk in Orkney which was meant to take place in the previous year, but could not because of the pandemic, also took place. Project reports and results can be found on the Castle Studies Trust website
(www.castlestudiestrust.org). The rest will appear there when ready.
Of all the projects, the most interesting results were found at Richmond, which appeared on the TV programme ‘Digging for Britain’. While there they found a William the Conquer Pax Penny and also discovered what was probably a butchery. Completion of the two Scottish projects was held up by delays at the laboratories carrying out the various tests, but all the field work had taken place.
Fundraising continued to rely on regular donations which grew well in the year thanks to a mixture of new donors and existing donors increasing their donations. Regular donors are given the opportunity to attend exclusive site visits to all the projects that the Trust funds during the year.
