Excavation

Miscellaneous features, surrounding fulacht fia (LI012-137----), excavated prior to the Adare to Annacotty N20/N21 Road Improvement Scheme (Gahan 1998). Excavated under licence no. 97E0092ext. the results were summarised as following; ‘The area surrounding the burnt mound, along the line of the road, was mechanically stripped of topsoil to investigate whether there were any associated structures. A random scatter of post-holes or small pits was uncovered, which did not appear to form any structure or pattern. It is most likely that they belong to the phase of activity of the burnt mound’ (www.excavations.ie 1998; 380). Compiled by: Martin Fitzpatrick Date upload: 24 June 2020
