Pre-planning discussions led to the  requirement of an archaeological impact assessment to be carried out on the developer’s land in Kilgobnet, west of Clondrohid. A new dwelling house was being planned in proximity to a cluster of monuments connected with an early ecclesiastical enclosure (CO059-065001-4) including a burial ground and two bullaun stones. The development site consisted of a south-facing field of improved pasture. A preliminary geophysics survey was carried out (23R0358) followed by targeted test excavation.

Eight test trenches were excavated over the footprint of the dwelling house. Between 0.2-0.4m of a mid-brown loamy topsoil overlay orange/yellow boulder clay. The entrance to the development did not require testing as it made use of an existing farm track. No archaeology was found.
