Testing was undertaken on a site at Blackcastle, Navan, as part of an assessment. The site was situated beside a recently constructed apartment building and had suffered a large amount of ground disturbance due to the adjacent development. The site is located within the area of archaeological potential as defined by John Bradley in the Urban Archaeological Survey of Navan. Three test-trenches were excavated on the site. The testing disclosed no material of an archaeological nature.
