Archaeological testing was carried out in advance of the construction of a residential dwelling at Church Road, Lusk, Co. Dublin. The site of the proposed development is located to the north-west of an Early Christian monastery.
The excavation of test-trenches revealed that archaeological deposits did not exist at this site. The boulder clay was exposed very close to the surface in both trenches and at a consistent depth. The site had evidently been ploughed in the past and this may explain the absence of archaeological stratigraphy.
