Geophysical survey (Licence 09R165) undertaken at St Doolagh’s demonstrated that the ecclesiastical enclosure (c. 162m diam.) (DU015-009005-) extends into the fields to the N, S and W of the church (DU015-009001-) and graveyard (DU015-009006-). A sub-rectangular network of ditches was identified to the S of the church extending further to the S as far as the ecclesiastical enclosure (DU015-009005-). These are likely to represent a network of enclosure remains contemporary with early settlement at St. Doolagh’s, which later evolved according to changing patterns of land-use at the site through to the 19th century as there is a partial correlation with former boundary alignments indicated on 1st edition Ordnance Survey 6-inch map. The results of the survey further suggest that interspersed with the ditches are pits and other features (1.5m-4m diam.) that could be interpreted as kiln remains or similar industrial deposits (Nicholls 2009, 7).
