Excavation (01E0883) within the town wall of Athboy has produced some evidence of medieval occupation in six intercutting medieval and post-medieval pits (max. diam. 4m; max. D 1.3m) inside the robber trench (Wth of top 1.45-2.2.5m; D 0.9-1.5m) on the WNW-ESE line of the town wall (L 50m plus). The robbed wall would have cut across the burgage plots depicted on the 1836 edition of the OS 6-inch map. (Danaher 2001; 2003; O’Hara 2002; 2004)
