Discovered prior to road construction (Excavation Licence No. 03E1255). Fifteen to seventeen inhumation burials in fourteen grave-cuts, some partially stone-lined, were excavated along with a number of disarticulated remains which possibly accounted for a further three to four individuals. The burials were centered on two NNW-SSE lines and a single ENE-WSW line with a single isolated burial c. 10m to the N. All the burials were orientated in an E-W direction, with the heads to the W, and are likely to be from a single extended family. There were six adult males and five adult females with three juveniles. Three calibrated radiocarbon dates range from AD 538-647 to AD 660-773). (Walsh F. 2004c, 9; 2006, 396-7; 2012 94-98)
