Several pits, narrow (0.75-1.5m) ditches and a stone-lined drain were identified during testing in advance of a new student centre west of Maynooth University (Kildare 19/622). Three charcoal-filled pits and several dragged charcoal deposits are indicative of a burning event in the field, the source of which was not located in testing.
Sherds of post-medieval pottery were recovered from a pit and a ditch, though some features may be earlier.
