Archaeological monitoring of installation of 606m of 125mm OD HDPE mains and 197m of 90mm OD HDPE mains in the public footpaths and road in residential estates occurred as an Uisce Éireann project.
The works involved excavation of pits from which horizontal drilling occurred. This was followed with excavtions to connect the water supply to adjacent dwellings.
The exposed stratigraphy consisted of modern footpath or road surfaces, onto bedding layers and directly on to natural subsoils.
No archaeology was encountered.
