2017:133 - DRUMQUIN & DROMORE SUBSTATIONS, Tyrone

An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at the substation sites at Drumquin Main (townland of Curraghmulkin) and Dromore Main (townland of Shannaragh) associated with the Curraghmulkin OHL project County Tyrone. The topsoil stripping associated with the Drumquin Main substation site did not produce any features, finds or deposits of archaeological significance. A number of features and deposits of archaeological significance were identified during monitored topsoil stripping at the Dromore Main site, including two keyhole kilns; pits; stakeholes and a ring-ditch and associated cremations. All of the archaeological features were fully excavated and recorded on site. Post-excavation works are ongoing.
