Monitoring of peat stripping took place in Drehid Bog, Co. Kildare Land Fill Gas (LFG) compound within the waste management facility in the Bord na Móna bog at Drehid, Co. Kildare between 29 May and 7 June 2013. Seven phases of monitoring have previously been carried out by Archaeological Development Services Ltd at the adjoining Drehid landfill site under licence 06E0746? during the construction of the waste cells. This phase of the development involved the construction of a housing for gas turbines, an ESB substation and an associated access road. Nothing of archaeological interest was found during the course of these groundworks.
