Monitoring was undertaken close to the site of Rathnalulagh (SMR 8:20), Morett, Emo, during the construction of a dwelling-house, garage and septic tank. No above-ground trace of the earthwork remains, as a result of agricultural activities over the past 40 years.
The development lies marginally within the designated zone around the site. No features of archaeological significance or finds were recorded during monitoring.
