Monitoring of pipe-trench excavation for the laying of water mains in Gorey town centre was carried out from July to October 2000. Monitoring on this section of the scheme covered Main Street and those streets south of it. The site works lay within the zone of archaeological potential for the town, as identified by the Urban Archaeology Survey. Previous monitoring of this scheme was undertaken by Rob Lynch, under the same licence (Excavations 1998, 216).
No features or finds of archaeological significance were revealed while monitoring this scheme.
