Twelve test-trenches were excavated across the site in advance of a residential development at Kilnaglery, Carrigaline. Evidence of prehistoric activity was revealed in one trench at the south of the centre of the development, overlooking a small watercourse. Four sherds of pottery and a number of probable features were identified. It is likely that the site will be fully excavated during 2007 following discussions between the developer, the National Monuments Section of the DoEHLG and Cork County Council.
