Monitoring of groundworks associated with the development of the Science and Technology Park (II) and district lands in Cherrywood and Laughanstown (No. 468, Excavations 2003 03E0839) uncovered six potential archaeological sites. Separate licences were obtained for each of these; the following refers to Site 1, which presented as a spread of charcoal.
Excavation of this feature showed that it did not have a distinct cut or fill and no finds were recovered. It was concluded that the charcoal was probably a result of burnt-out vegetation, which had no archaeological significance.
