Test-trenching was undertaken in March 2007 at St Patrick’s College, College Street, Carlow. The work was in support of planning permission to construct an arts centre and theatre complex. The proposed development is situated at the edge of the zone of archaeological potential for CW007–018, the town of Carlow. Five 2m-wide test-trenches totalling 232m in length were machine excavated across the proposed development site. No features of archaeological significance were found.
