Monitoring of the mechanical excavation of a trench to house a retaining wall was undertaken at the scheduled ‘Dunmull Hillfort’ to service a replacement dwelling. The monitoring exercise took place as the trench would encroach upon the scheduled area. The trench was aligned roughly north-east/south-west and measured roughly 32m in length by 1.5m in width (0.5m of the width encroached upon the scheduled area). Nothing of archaeological significance was encountered during monitoring.
