This site was identified as an area of archaeological potential during the testing phase of the pre-construction archaeological works on the N9/N10 upgrade. Three small beads of unknown date were found in the topsoil during testing. In order to resolve this site, 25m by 25m of topsoil was removed in very thin layers using a caterpillar machine. The site was excavated down to the natural material. No features of archaeological merit were found, nor were any more beads or other finds recovered.
