Testing was undertaken on the site of a proposed commercial development at Marlborough Street/Marlborough Place, Dublin 1. The area of proposed development is located within the archaeological constraint area for historic city of Dublin (DU018–020).
Test-trenching commenced at the site on 29 September 2008 and lasted for two days. Two trenches were mechanically investigated across the test area, a large portion of which was inaccessible at the time of testing due to the presence of standing buildings. Nothing of archaeological significance was discovered.
