An archaeological evaluation was carried out at a site 60m north of 64 Ballygroobany Road, Richhill, Co. Armagh in response to a planning application for a new dwelling and garage. In the field adjacent to the application site are the remains of a rath (ARM013-010). The evaluation consisted of four mechanically-excavated test trenches each 30m long and 1.7m wide. No remains of archaeological significance were uncovered during the course of the evaluation.
