A series of test-trenches were excavated on the footprint of the proposed development of a dwelling house and associated siteworks at Moatpark, Ballyragget in compliance with the planning conditions, as the site lies at the edge of the constraint zone of KK005–023–01–03, a motte, castle and chapel site (possible). No features or finds of an archaeological nature were uncovered in any of the trenches opened.
