2011:576 - NENAGH: O’Rahilly Street Car Park/Nenagh Castle, Tipperary

Monitoring of the demolition of two boundary walls was carried out in May and June 2011. The walls were recorded photographically and also by a scaled plan. After demolition, the rubble was spread out and was searched for architectural fragments but none were identified. Any useful building stone was retrieved and stored in the grounds of Nenagh Castle for possible future use in the ongoing restoration works. Two shallow trial holes were also monitored in the car park. These were cut into modern fill. No archaeological features or deposits were noted.
