Two hundred of thesa missiles, cach weighing from 561b. to Rewt., have been found inside the ruins of the Norman part of the castle, Two hundred more have been found in the moat, and there are many others just showing through
the mud.
All this anununition suggests a terrific battle centuries ago. But what battle was it? That is the puzzle
The excavators have found noth- ing to indicate when all this am- munition was fired from catapult engines, They are beginning to think. however, that there must have been an annihilisation of the Pevensey garrison, so thickly do the balls lie about.
Most of the balls are of Norman make. They are round and are fashioned out of Sussex green sandstone, of which the castle it- self is built.
Pevensey Castle was besieged, captured, and recaptured several times, in the 12th and 13th cen- turies, but these stone missiles seem to represent a battle bigger than any known in the history of i the place.
Mr. West, who is in charge, said that the excavation work would
keep him and his men busy for the
next six years. He has a bandi of Welsh and Northumberland miners working for him.
