Quarry

What is recorded here

On the W-facing slope of a hill in woodland. A hachured feature marked on the 1947-8 revision of the OS 6-inch map proved on inspection in 1984 to be a disused gravel pit defined by a series of large irregular pits that were overgrown with trees. As it is of post-AD 1700 date it does not come within the remit of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 14 August 2014
