Monitoring was carried out in advance of a large-scale mixed-use industrial/commercial scheme in Charles-land, Greystones, in 2004. Four areas of archaeological significance were exposed, two fulachta fiadh, one area with medieval activity and an isolated Bronze Age urn. A separate excavation licence was obtained (04E0387, No. 1858 below) and all details of the above features are detailed in that report.
