Waterford County Council requested further information regarding a planning application, as the proposed agricultural development lies 25m to the east of a delisted RMP site, WA003-033, destroyed in the 1960s. Section 14 required a detailed assessment, including geophysical survey (licence no. 10R165) followed by testing, to be carried out to assess the impact of the development on any archaeological features uncovered by the geophysical survey. Eleven test trenches were opened using GPS data to investigate potential archaeological features or anomalies identified by the survey. No features or finds of an archaeological nature were uncovered.
