Storey’s Farm, Castle Hill excavations by John Alexander, likely in 1964. This site overlaps with the Castle End Farmhouse and may in fact be the same site with a different name. It is treated as part of the Castle End Farmhouse site (Event no. ECB4922), similar to Storey’s Charity.

Could this be the same as ' Castle End Farm' referred to in PCAS 65. The only other published reference to the site under the name of Storey' s Farm seems to be the single unexplained photograph in Dr Alexander' s article in The Archaeological Newsletter, vol. 7, no. 10 (March 1964); Collected by: Alexander.J; Deposit: GIII Top -
