Testing was carried out at the site of a proposed biopharmaceutical plant in Grange Castle Industrial Park, Co. Dublin. The entire development site is approximately 11ha in size however the proposed plant will be built on the southern 7.5ha of the site, leaving the northern portion available for future expansion. Only the southern 7.5ha was subject to testing. A total of 15 trenches, measuring 2,585 linear metres, were excavated across the area of proposed development over the course of four days from 9 December 2013. Nothing of archaeological significance was identified during this programme of testing.
