An intertidal survey was carried out at the site of a proposed development at Kilmacsimon Quay on the Bandon River, Co. Cork. The proposed route of a water main crossing the river and the site of a proposed pontoon were inspected at low water, and an intertidal survey was carried out on the foreshore in the vicinity. There was no visible evidence of two ‘fish weirs’ that are depicted on the 1844 first edition OS map. Three quays marked on this map are extant though not in use. Kilmacsimon itself is a working quay. No previously unrecorded archaeological features were noted during this assessment.
