Monitoring of ground reduction in July–August 2005 and January–April 2006 was carried out, due to the proximity of the development site to Drimnagh Castle (DU018–036). Truncated natural was encountered at depths of 0.25–0.5m below ground level, a consequence of the construction of the late 20th-century factory that previously occupied the site. No significant archaeology was identified.
