What is recorded here

Archaeological testing (12E0306) in an area of c. 7 ha (c. 18acres) c. 250m WSW of the core of Gorey town (WX007-033----) identified and excavated two fulachta fia, three burnt mounds, a pit and a corn-drying kiln. This oval pit (dims 1.4m x 1.32m; D 0.28m) in Area A was at the crest of a slope down to a small E-W stream or drain and its fill contained burnt stone. It probably related to the burnt mound (WX007-085007-) 18m to the N.
