Enclosure in Cappoge — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Excavation (Licence no. 06E0288) was undertaken at the site in advance of the Premier Business Park development. A large L-shaped ditch (3.9m w. x 1.74m max. depth) extended N – S for 53.4m and the E return extended for c. 20m. The size of this ditch and its organic waterlogged fill indicates that it could represent the remains of a moat that may have delimited the earlier settlement on this site, prior to the construction of the recorded Cappogue Castle (DU014-027----). Pottery recovered from the moat indicates occupation during the 12th – 14th centuries (McQuade 2009). Compiled by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 6 February 2015
