The development involves the construction of a wind farm at Cleanrath townland near Inchigeelagh. New archaeological sites were found during field-walking associated with the EIS stage of the project. The sites include hut sites, a stone enclosure and walls and were found within the vicinity of Turbine base 6. A request for further information required the testing of the area of T6 and the access road 150m to the south of it. Six test trenches were excavated on the site. No finds or features were uncovered.
