Planning permission was granted for a development of 298 houses within Ballyellis Demesne, Mallow, Co. Cork. The site fell within the zones of archaeological potential for a possible ringfort, a tree ring and a limekiln. During monitoring of the first phase of groundworks on the site in January 2003, four potential archaeological features were uncovered and excavated. Charcoal, two sherds of possible Neolithic pottery and a quern stone were recovered. Further monitoring took place in October 2003. No features or artefacts of archaeological interest were found during the second phase of monitoring.
