Abstract
Mr and Mrs Noble have received English Heritage grant funding to undertake a programme of consolidation works to Bew Castle, in northern Cumbria (NY 5656 7468). The castle is a Scheduled Monument (SM 12974) and a Grade 1 Listed Building, and has been in a ruinous state for many years.
Between 2003 and 2004, Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) undertook two seasons of recording and excavation at the castle. The work comprised a pre-consolidation record of
the fabric, an analysis of the development of the castle, and the excavation of a cross-shaped evaluation trench, in the centre of the castle, to investigate the nature of the subsurface remains. A record of the consolidation works was maintained throughout their
duration.
