A programme of archaeological excavations was undertaken as part of the N4 Dromod Roosky bypass at the request of Leitrim County Council. In total, 25 potential archaeological sites were identified during centreline testing as part of the advance archaeological investigation (see No. 1214 above, 05E0983).
Faulties consisted of the badly disturbed remains of a post-medieval kiln, as was depicted on the first-edition 6-inch OS map.
