Excavated in 2006-7 in advance of the N9/N10 Kilcullen to Waterford Road Improvement Scheme. Excavation licence no. 2517, AR053, Area C. One of a cluster of monuments found in close proximity to each other in an area c. 1.8ha with dates ranging from the Late Neolithic to the early medieval period. Four circular post-built structures (ext. diams. 6.35-9.8m) were found along the NE portion of a palisaded enclosure (KK031-076----). They represent at least three phases of construction and replacement. These are not likely to have been substantial and may have been simple tent-like structures. Radiocarbon dates ranged from Cal AD 25-128 (UBA 10685) to Cal AD 60-131 (UBA 10684). (Channing 2009, 255-6, no. 1003; 2010a, 234, no. 881; 2010b)
