Testing was undertaken at the Lough and Quay public house, Clondalkin, Dublin. The development plans included an extension to the original building and a small basement at its eastern side. Three trenches were excavated to an average depth of 0.9m: one at the eastern side of the public house and two intersecting trenches at the southern end. The upper fill was comprised of 0.2m of modern concrete and tarmac infill overlying 0.2m of grey-brown, stony, sticky clay and overlying 0.4m of orange, sandy clay. Modern water-drainage pipes were evident in some of the trenches. Nothing of archaeological significance was recorded during the testing.
