Topsoil stripping on the site of a proposed car-racing venue was monitored over a period of several weeks in October 2013. The location of the proposed development is an upland site on the southern slopes of the Ballyhoura Mountains, at an elevation of 201m OD. The site is somewhat marshy and vegetation comprised part rough grazing, part scrub (heathers, gorse and rushes). No archaeological features or artefacts were found.
