Monitoring of alterations to the existing 110kv electrical transformer station at Ballykillen, Edenderry Road, Co. Offaly, was undertaken. The development area was located 600m south-east of c. 100 archaeological sites identified during the Peatland Survey of 2002. The stripping of the current hardcore surface followed by the excavation of a number of foundation pads for electrical structures within the existing substation was monitored. The area had been heavily disturbed and nothing of archaeological significance was noted.
