An archaeological impact assessment was undertaken on a site at Bennetstown, Dunboyne, Co. Meath in advance of a planning application. Geophysical survey of the site under licence 22R0292 identified some linear and curvilinear anomalies of possible archaeological origin.

No features, finds or objects of archaeological significance were identified during the course of testing.
