What is recorded here

The site was subject to geophysical survey (08R017) and excavation (Licence no. E3919) in advance of the construction of the Tyrrelstown to N2 Link Road. This monument consisted of two ditches, a collection of isolated pit features and a deposit of clay (8.65m x 5.65m) containing medieval pottery. The pottery assemblage is locally-produced ware dated to the 13th and 14th centuries AD. While there was no conclusive settlement features it is possibly linked to medieval settlement at the former location of Bay House (DU014-089----) (O’Hara R. 2008, 3).
