Assessment was undertaken for a proposed development at Crotty's Bakery, Friar Street, Thurles. The site was in use as a bakery from the late 19th century and continued to be until recently. However, all buildings on the site post-date J. Rocque's Map of Thurles of 1755, and most are late 19th- and early 20th-century in date.

Two linear test-trenches were opened for this assessment, in the front courtyard area and the rear garden area. No archaeological soils or features were encountered.
