A programme of licensed archaeological test trenching was carried out at Ballytegan, Gorey, Co. Wexford, in advance of a proposed residential development. The works followed a geophysical survey and were undertaken to investigate a number of weak and tentative anomalies identified during that survey.

Nine test trenches, with a combined length of c. 454m, were mechanically excavated under archaeological supervision. No archaeological features, deposits or artefacts were identified.

The results confirm that the geophysical anomalies were not of archaeological significance.
