Caption: Archaeology at Fort George
Additional Description: During 1974 and 1975 archaeological investigations were conducted on this lotto determine the location of Fort George. Plans to develop the lot into an educational park required archaeology to protect potential cultural resources. Several significant elements of the fort were located including a section of the moat, a powder magazine, and a group of vaulted rooms believed to be latrines. Since the site did not include living and dining areas, few artifacts were recovered. Much of the useable equipment was removed from the structure when it was abandoned.
