Additional archaeological investigation took place in July, in advance of the construction of the M8/N8 Cullahill to Cashel road improvement scheme. Prior assessment and centreline test-trenching was carried out by Sinéad Phelan in 2005 (Excavations 2005, No. 1388, A027/008). A series of pits and possible stone walls uncovered during centreline testing were investigated and revealed to be geological in origin. No archaeological features or artefacts were uncovered in this phase of work.
