A licence was sought to undertake monitoring of ground works in association with the South Tipperary Water Conservation Project. The project area encompasses the surrounding suburbs of Fethard Town, outside of the area of archaeological potential and outside of the zone of constraint relating to the National Monument which is the walled town of Fethard (TS070-040). A separate Ministerial Consent C000487 has been granted to monitor works inside the walled town relating to the archaeological hand excavation of trenches in advance of pipelaying and monitoring.
Works are ongoing. An updated bulletin will be submitted on completion.
