This site was excavated (E3502) during 2005 as a part of a complex area know as Site 42-44 of the N11 Gorey to Arklow link. An extensive area (dims. 250m N-S 48-60m E-W) across the road-take was excavated, but geophysical survey indicates that activity extended outside this to the E, W and SW. Situated on the lower NW-facing slope of Ask Hill.
This is structure H in area A, a rectangular area (dims c. 10m N-S; c. 7m E-W) between ring-ditch (WX007-076004-) to the W and structure (WX007-076006-) immediately to the E, and it might be interpreted as activity in the space between them. It consists mostly of stake-holes but two cremation pits and several post-holes are included. It produces no discernible pattern, although it may have been bounded on the E by a curving gully (C 5m; Wth 0.3m). It produced one crushed prehistoric pottery vessel.
