Testing was carried out at Thomastown Road, Inistioge, Co. Kilkenny, within the area of constraint for the historic town of Inistioge. Five test-trenches were excavated. Nothing of archaeological significance was uncovered in Trenches 1–3. Trenches 4 and 5 revealed a cobble surface that is thought to relate to a yard associated with buildings indicated on the second-edition OS map of 1902. All finds associated with the surface also date to this period; it was therefore considered to be of no archaeological significance.
