An assessment was carried out in advance of the construction of a proposed dwelling at Stirrupstown, Crossakeel, Co. Meath. The site was directly south of a complex of monuments in Newtown and Boherard. Four trenches were excavated within the development site. The subsoil was located at depths ranging from 0.5 to 0.9m and testing failed to identify any archaeological features.
