Pre-development archaeological evaluation works were undertaken on 11 April 2016 at a proposed development site at lands 300m north-east of Nos 79 and 81 Magheraveely Road, Drummaw Td., Newtownbutler, Co. Fermanagh (Planning Ref: LA10/2016/0054/F), having been commissioned by Mr. Neville Leary & Mrs. Sarah Leary. The works undertaken are intended to provide additional information for the Department of the Environment Northern Ireland: Historic Environment Division: Historic Monuments Unit (DOENI:HED:HMU) prior to making a Planning Decision under Planning Policy Statement 6: Built Heritage 3 (PPS 6:BH3) in response to a Planning Application for a proposed development comprising the construction of a two-storey farm dwelling with associated domestic garage at the site.
Six evaluation trenches comprising a total of c.225m of linear trenching were excavated within the boundaries of the proposed development area. On-site evaluation works revealed undisturbed glacial subsoil throughout each of the trenches. No archaeological features, remains or deposits were identified during the evaluation works.
