Excavations at Castle Hill, Newfoundland in 1969 / by Bruce A. Morton.: R61-2/7-79E-PDF
"Archaeological investigations at Castle Hill, Placentia, Newfoundland, were conducted in order to complete the excavation of the previously unexcavated west curtain wall and several smaller units within the redoubt. In conjunction with this aim, the stabilization and restoration of all remaining features was undertaken to prevent further deterioration through vandalism and weathering. Investigations showed that during the period of British restoration, beginning in 1757, some French structures were incorporated into British repairs and modified to suit immediate needs, rather than being totally destroyed."--Abstract, page v.
