Archaeology at Hay Castle

Here's a view of Hay Castle from across the river, covered in plastic.
Meanwhile, inside the castle, the archaeologist on the project, Peter Dorling, has been busy inside the medieval tower. The Victorian owners of the castle built a brick vaulted wine cellar there, and seven wine bottles were found hidden behind the brickwork!
Another interesting find was shards of Venetian glass from the 15th or 16th century - something elegant and intricate to drink wine from.
