Machine testing was undertaken as part of Contract 1 of the N6 Galway–Ballinasloe road scheme (Phase 1 testing). Testing was primarily concerned with the possible remains of a structure highlighted by a geophysical survey (conducted by ArchaeoPhysica) carried out in the area. No material of an archaeological nature was revealed during testing. No further work is proposed at the site.

The work was commissioned by Galway County Council National Roads Design Office and sponsored by the National Roads Authority. RPS-MCOS Ltd acted as principal consultants for the scheme.
