Monitoring was undertaken at a site in Baltrasna, Moynalty, Co, Meath. The landowner proposed to build a structure to house cattle and to insert a slatted unit, which would require excavation into the subsoil. The proposed development was located in close proximity to enclosures ME011–017 and ME011–016. The proposed site measured 17m north–south by 7m. It was stripped to the natural subsoil using a 13-tonne machine and a grading bucket. No archaeology was uncovered during stripping.
