Testing was carried out on 29 and 30 October 2013 at the location of the proposed Lough Boora visitors centre at Lea Beg, Co. Offaly on foot of a planning condition. No potential archaeological features were recorded in the four machine-excavated test trenches. As the site is located within a raised bog it is recommended however that any peat removal required during the construction phase be monitored.
