What is recorded here

Habitation site in Cashel is a habitation site in Cashel, County Tipperary, Ireland. A 1990 excavation behind Nos. 66-72 Main Street revealed layers of clay and charcoal that may have marked house floors. No objects emerged from the dig, but the probable medieval date places these floors beside the old town rather than outside it.
An excavation in 1990 to the rear of Nos. 66-72 Main Street, Cashel revealed a series of layers of clay and lenses of charcoal, which were interpreted as possibly representing house floors (Hayden 1991, 51-2). Though no finds were uncovered, the 'floors' were probably of medieval date (ibid.). Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 05 August 2014
