What is recorded here

Discovered prior to road construction (Excavation Licence No. 03E0888) and situated on a gentle S-facing slope in a low-lying area with a NW-SE section of a small meandering stream c. 40m to the S. Excavation revealed the walls of a rectangular structure (12m E-W x 7-8.5m N-S) with a possible entrance at the SE and a possible internal wall. A large assemblage of early Neolithic pottery was recovered from the slot trenches and post holes. It produced three C14 dates varying from calibrated dates of 3939-3702 to 3711-3656 BC. The house was found in association with two other Neolithic structures (MO031-124---- and MO031-125----). (Walsh 2006, 405; 2011, 509-12). Date of revised upload: 27 July 2017
