The site is located in Gillstown townland, Navan, Co Meath. A site inspection of the proposed development site did not reveal any upstanding monuments. There are no recorded monuments within 100m of the proposed development site. The development comprises of the retention of existing building together with the construction of a extension to the hen house and ancillary site works. As a condition of planning it was requested that monitoring be carried out for the removal of topsoil, the excavation of trenches for foundations, services and drainage associated with the proposed development. Monitoring of the topsoil and overburden removal was undertaken from 23/06/17 to 27/06/17. A mechanical excavator with a toothless bucket was utilised to topsoil strip all areas of the development site affected by ground-works. No archaeological deposits were uncovered. |
