An excavation took place during December 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 (A027/009). An area was stripped of topsoil around a series of pits revealed during centreline testing. However, excavation largely revealed these to be natural tree boles and no additional archaeological features or artefacts were uncovered.
