The test area follows the line of the proposed N58 road widening at Bellavary, Co. Mayo. Testing was confined to the greenfield area adjacent to the existing road within the zone of archaeological potential for the enclosure MA070-117 and 40m from the edge of the monument. One 75m-long trench was opened parallel to the road to assess the archaeological potential of the area impacted on. Nothing of archaeological interest was identified by this testing.
