What is recorded here

Archaeological works, undertaken in 2004 in advance of the construction of the N8 Mitchelstown relief road, revealed almost 100 pits, post-holes and stake-holes. However, no discernible pattern was evident in their arrangements. One of the pits (CO019-172001-) exhibited signs of in situ burning. Two sherds of prehistoric pottery were discovered in an extremely shallow feature to the S.
