Test trenching took place at the site of a proposed development by PJ Nolan for a two-storey dwelling and all ancillary site works at Drummond, Ballyellis, County Wexford just south-east of the Wicklow/Wexford border.

The site is within the archaeological constraint area for a ringfort – rath WX006-084 which is visible on aerial photographs as a bivallate enclosure. Four test trenches were excavated within the footprint of the proposed development site. No finds or features of archaeological significance were exposed. No further archaeological mitigation is required for the development to proceed.
