What is recorded here
Excavations (Licence no. 03E1356 ext) prior to the construction of the N2 Finglas-Ashbourne Road scheme in 2004 revealed a fulacht fia near the Ward river. This comprised an irregularly shaped spread of burnt mound material immediately adjacent to the S tributary of the Ward River. Beneath the burnt spread two troughs were discovered. No archaeological finds were recovered.
