A programme of archaeological excavations was undertaken as part of the N4 Dromod Roosky bypass at the request of Leitrim County Council. In total, 25 potential archaeological sites were identified during centreline testing as part of the advance archaeological investigation (see No. 1214, Excavations 2006, 05E0983).

The reassessment of Killinaker 1 revealed the site to be a system of relatively modern field boundaries that had been flattened and removed some time in the past.
