An assessment was carried out to assess the archaeological potential of a development site in Dunnamona, County Westmeath. The proposed development of a single dwelling and ancillary works is located immediately to the north of the zone of archaeological potential of a prominent motte and bailey (WM023-013001/2). The assessment included a test excavation which was carried out during June 2016. Three trenches were excavated but no features or finds of archaeological significance were found.
