In 2005, archaeological excavation (Licence no. 04E0233 ext.) in advance of a large commercial development in ‘Field 1’ at Grey Abbey (KD022-029006-) uncovered an Iron Age kiln, preserved beneath the remains of an earthen platform. It was figure-of-eight in plan and measured 2.7m in length. The fire bowl, located to the S, measured 0.75m N-S by 0.57m by 0.9m in depth. A 2 sigma radiocarbon determination of 196–4 BC was obtained. The remainder of the platform was not excavated. (Dennehy E. 2008, No. 757, 184-5)
