Geophysical Survey of Kilkenny, Leinster, Republic of Ireland

Sum awarded: £7,622

This project proposes the use of geophysical survey to locate and map the lost Flemingstown of Kilkenny Castle - a unique example of a purpose-built Flemish colonial suburb of an Anglo-Norman castle in Ireland. While some of the outer ward has already been investigated, the one area missing has been around the site of the township’s tower.
