This excavation was undertaken on behalf of Wicklow County Council and the National Roads Authority in advance of the construction of the N11 Rathnew to Arklow road improvement motorway scheme.

Excavations uncovered a single pit measuring 1.05m by 0.9m in diameter and 0.11m in depth. It had a single fill and there were no finds to suggest a date or function. A post-medieval field drain was excavated to the south-east of the pit.
