In compliance with the relevant condition of the planning permission, archaeological testing was carried out on the site of Nos 1 and 2 Main Street, Lucan, in July 1996. This was Phase 2 of the development on this site; a report on Phase 1 was published in Excavations 1995, 28–9. Two intersecting trenches were mechanically opened under archaeological supervision, extending the full length and width of the area of the proposed new development. In all cases these were dug to reveal the underlying natural deposits.
No archaeological features or artefacts were revealed, and in no case were deposits of archaeological significance encountered. This site can thus be considered as having been archaeologically resolved.
