It is proposed by Sperrin Lakeland Trust to build a new acute hospital for Fermanagh and West Tyrone at Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh. During the course of monitoring of topsoil removal across the development site, a number of areas of archaeological potential were identified. Further investigation of these features revealed a burnt mound of Bronze Age date and a number of isolated features of uncertain date or function.
