A test-trench was excavated along the Navan to Donore road, just south of SMR 25:29, in January 1999, as part of the Navan Sewerage Augmentation Scheme. The site in question was a mound, destroyed in the 1970s, which contained a long cist and inhumation.
The test-trench was c. 150m long and was inserted along the route of a proposed sewerage pipe. Archaeological features had been recorded in the pipeline trench c. 200m to the west (see No. 685, Excavations 1999). No archaeological features were noted during the excavation of this trench.
