The site at Ringlestown, Kilmessan, was identified as being in an area of high archaeological potential prior to the commencement of site works and was identified during testing (Excavations 2004, No. 1236, 04E1499) and topsoil removal in the area. The area exposed lay within the wayleave giving construction access for the Dunshaughlin to Castletown Tara trunk sewer. In this case, the site, and its contents, remain preserved in situ.
