Remains of two significant archaeological features were identified on the site of the northern extension. The remains of a broad cut, over 2.5m wide and 0.3m deep. The base of the cut contained a layer of flints, which was interpreted as the probable foundation of a rampart as it lay in line with part of the surviving rampart of the moat. Inside the line of the moat there was the remains of a flint nodule cobble surface (B8).
