OSWESTRY Castle Research Group is set to unveil their findings of the site at a talk with the local history and archaeology group.
Roger Cooper will present the discoveries and their meaning to the Oswestry & Border History & Archaeology Group (OBHAG) on Friday, November 10.
He will explain what they found during the excavations from 2015 to 2021.
A spokesperson for the OBHAG said: “Roger will be speaking on those excavations, the exciting finds that were made, and what the excavation says about the history of Oswestry Castle – its importance to the development of the town of Oswestry, and the significant role it had as a Welsh border fortress.”
