Additional investigation was carried out in October 2006 in advance of the construction of the M8/N8 Cullahill to Cashel road improvement scheme. Prior assessment and centreline test-trenching was carried out in 2005 by Colm Moriarty (Excavations 2005, No. 790, A027/015). The site was previously recorded as post-holes resolved during testing. An additional area of 400m2 was opened, but no additional archaeological features were recorded.
