The excavations at Site 11, Moneylawn Lower, were carried out in advance of the N11 Gorey–Arklow link road scheme. The site consisted of an oval-shaped shallow pit. The pit had suffered from intense heating, which had turned the natural a brick-red colour. Apart from a moderate quantity of charcoal, there were no other artefacts recovered from the feature. Two parallel ditches were also identified within the site. On excavation these proved to be modern drainage ditches. No other features were identified within the site.
