    Falkirk Archaeological Report TORWOOD CASTLE EXCAVATIONS Geoff B Bailey 1 Falkirk Archaeological Report Contents: Introduction The Courtyard Buildings: Room 1 Room 2 The Pend Room 3/4 Room 5/6 Room 7 Room 8 Courtyard Features Trench A Trench B Interpretation and Discussion Phase I – 16th Century (Palatial Residence) Phase II – 17th Century (Baronial House & Park) Phase III- 18th Century (Farmhouse) Phase IV – Gordon Miller (Smallholding) Finds Clay Tobacco Pipes Ceramics Roofing Material Stone Metal Food and Drink Bibliography 2 Falkirk Archaeological Report Introduction In 1997 the author was invited by Gordon Millar, the owner and occupier of Torwood Castle, and the Torwood Castle Trust, to undertake excavations on the courtyard buildings there ahead of a proposed development. Gordon Millar had already been diagnosed with cancer and the Trust had been established to continue his project of consolidating and reconstructing the castle within a setting free from housing estates. No funding was available and the author spent his summer holidays over the next four years with a small band of volunteers at the castle. Illus 1: Plan of the excavated features in and around the courtyard. 3 Falkirk Archaeological Report The 1998 season saw the investigation of the room east of the entrance pend (Room 5/6) and the well room (Room 7). Unfortunately Gordon died before work began. In 1999 the East Wing was explored and a small trench pushed out to the east. In the 2000 season the rooms west of the pend were excavated, along with part of the courtyard. The final year, 2001, was designed to explain the presence of a strange break in the masonry of the external wall of the West Wing near its northern end.
