Navan Sewerage Scheme commenced in the early 1990s. The most recent phase is in operation since November 1998. Clare Mullins completed an archaeological assessment of the route. The line of the sewerage trench close to a Bronze Age cemetery site was monitored. The trench was 1.2m wide and on average 2.8m deep. A sandy silt soil overlay layers of gravel and limestone bedrock.

No archaeological stratigraphy was recorded in the trench. No artefacts were recovered.
