This belief comes from the positive results of the castle excavation project - the home of this famous writer in Stratford-upon-Avon.

Archaeological experts began the excavation of New Place in Stratford-upon-Avon - the residence of Shakespeare, 250 years ago. Although the castle has been ruined almost completely, scientists think they have identified the location of the trash and waste water mentioned by Shakespeare in a poem.

In this area, archaeologists have obtained broken pieces of pottery and pipe. These are thought to be the most important discoveries of Shakespeare's life for decades.

Dr. Diana Owen, director of the Excavation Trust Shakespeare and director of the excavation project, said: 'We do not know if this garden is used by Shakespeare. But this excavation may yield surprising results, especially if this is the true location of the Shakespeare family's garbage and wastewater '.

Meanwhile, Dr. Kevin Colls, from the Birmingham Institute of Archeology, added: 'According to historical records, we know that Shakespeare lives at New Place castle but we have very little information on the device. The next floor and the gardens around it. However, through the excavation results from the remaining architectures and the objects found, we hope to solve the above mysteries. '

Paul Edmondson, an expert at the Birthplace Trust Shakespeare, said: "The results of this excavation project can change our view of Shakespeare. We already know that Shakespeare owns another castle at London, but maybe you need a quiet place to compose. "

"So, why don't you go to your old castle to work? I believe Shakespeare is a famous writer in London, but his classics are mostly composed in Stratford ' .

From now until October 2010, visitors can still follow the excavation process of archaeologists in the area around New Place castle. Archaeological experts hope the excavation results will help prove the theory that Shakespeare wrote most of his famous works at the castle.
