Monitoring of site investigation works (excavation of slit trenches and test pits) was undertaken across Dundalk between January and April 2013 in advance of County Louth Water Mains Rehabilitation Scheme. No archaeological material was recorded in the majority of the site investigation trenches. However, in the course of monitoring, archaeological layers of probable medieval date and containing animal bone, were identified at Clanbrassil Street and Castle Street.
