Testing took place at this site outside the north-east angle of Bandon town wall as part of an application to construct three dwelling-houses. Three trenches were excavated to depths of 0.6–1m along the lines of the house foundations. The fill of these trenches consisted entirely of redeposited modern rubble and debris mixed with topsoil. This material probably dates from levelling of the site in the last quarter of the 20th century.
