This site was excavated as part of the pre-construction archaeological mitigation of the N25 Waterford bypass. The remains of a large burnt mound were recovered along with an associated timber-lined trough (supported by stones and at least one wooden stake), one possible stone-lined trough and four pits. The extent and depth of the burnt mound indicated the site had been used on a number of occasions. Post-medieval field drains had disturbed the site.
