Pre-development testing was carried out on a proposed access road and in the area of a proposed 02 mast at Forty Acres, Tuam. Prior to testing a previously unrecorded subcircular enclosure (11m north-east/south-west by 12m) was detected near one section of the proposed access road and redirection was advised. No features turned up from testing.
