contents Neutron scattering is frequently used to look for evidence of features indicative of quantum-entangled phases of matter such as continua from fractionalisation or quantised excitations. However, the non-specificity of these features and difficulty of both fully quantum treatments and semiclassical models of disorder, make the diagnosis of such states problematic. Here, we demonstrate the feasibility of semiclassical treatments of disordered systems for supercells of $\sim 10,000$ spins. By examining a number of classically disordered models we show the presence of quantised excitations, broad continua and anomalous damping originating from quenched disorder or large classical degeneracies.
