What is recorded here
Discovered during pre-development excavation at the site of the former Drogheda Grammar School in 1998 (Excavation Licence No. 98E0544). Excavation revealed a rectangular building (4.2m E-W; 2.5m N-S; D 2.9m), defined by very substantial walls with a base batter. Putlog holes were exposed on the N wall. Found in association with a number of medieval buildings (LH024-041068-, LH024-041069-, LH024-041075-, LH024-041076- and LH024-041077-), the remains of the Archbishops palace (LH024-041078-), two medieval corn-drying kilns (LH024-041070- and LH024-041074-) and a lime kiln (LH024-041073-).
