A test excavation was carried out on 3–4 November 2005 at a c. 3.9ha site to the east of the Glenamuck Road adjacent to the new roundabout at Carrickmines. The site forms Phase I of a two-stage development called Carrickmines Green (Phase II will be located to the west of the Glenamuck Road). Seven test-trenches were excavated at the site. No archaeological deposits or features were identified.
Following on from this, monitoring of topsoil-stripping was undertaken. No archaeological features or deposits were identified.
