Kilkenny County Council proposed a development consisting of seven dwellings for the elderly at a site in Ballyragget within the confines of a tower-house with a bawn enclosure. An archaeological impact assessment was required, to include a detailed survey of the boundary wall on the northern side of the proposed development.
Four test-trenches were excavated and nothing was found in these that would indicate the presence of archaeological remains.
