Archaeological investigation was conducted at St Andrew’s Church, Lucan, on behalf of the parish council, who wished to build a parochial hall adjacent to it. The area presently under investigation has been a small orchard for the past hundred years.
The church itself was built during the nineteenth century. Six intersecting trenches were mechanically cut, extending the full length and width of the site. These trenches were dug to expose the underlying natural deposits. No archaeological features or artefacts were revealed and in no cases were deposits of archaeological significance encountered.
