What is recorded here

Excavations in advance of the N2 Finglas-Ashbourne Road scheme in 2004 revealed remains of a spread of burnt mound material (L 10m, Wth 3.5m, D 0.15m). This was located adjacent to a natural waterlogged peat basin which contained a large number of split round-wood logs. Two pits and a sub-circular trough containing heat shattered stones and charcoal -rich deposits produced no archaeological finds (NRA) Compiled by: Geraldine Stout Date of upload: 26 August 2011

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
