On a gentle S-facing slope in rolling landscape under tillage. Excavated in 2007 in advance of the N9/N10 Kilcullen to Waterford road improvement scheme (Licence no. E3575). A field system consisting of three E-W boundary ditches and an associated linear furrow. These were dated to the medieval period on the basis of medieval pottery (13th-century Kilkenny-type ware) in their fills. The boundaries extend beyond the limits of the excavation to the W. Post-medieval features including structures, linear drains, ditches and furrows relating to a farmstead were excavated in the same area. A field system (KK027-017----) lies c. 200m to the NW. (Kyle 2010, 250, no. 947; Kyle and Coughlan 2012)
