What is recorded here

Situated on the slight NE-facing slope of a gravel ridge between the high and low water marks on the SW shore of the Newry River estuary. Archaeological excavation (E 4498) in advance of a new bridge recorded a metal-working area and two corn-drying kilns. The flue (Wth 0.5m; L c. 3m) of Kiln 1 was stone-lined with the drying-bowl at the SW end. Samples of ash, hazel, blackthorn willow and alder were identified but no cereals were recorded. The kiln (LH002-012004-) is just to the SW. (Walsh 2015, 302-03) Date of upload: 25 October, 2016
