Mountgeorge 6 was located on the proposed M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy scheme. The site was situated in tilled land.
An oval-shaped deposit was recorded, measuring 1.3m by 0.6m and 0.04m thick, orientated roughly north-east to south-west and consisting of a dark black/brown silty clay with moderate inclusions of charcoal flecks and some angular burnt stones. Modern glass fragments were noted on the surface of the deposit.
