Monitoring of the digging for an ESB pole was carried out in order to comply with a plann- ing condition. The pole stood within an area where a number of fulachta fiadh had been noted. It was close to the western bank of the River Fergus and liable to flooding. The ground was densely covered with scrub, with a high incident of rock outcrop.
The approach was made from the northern side. Some removal of the growth and outcrop was necessary to allow access. A cutting measuring c. 1m2 was made. Nothing of archaeological interest was noted.
