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 at the extreme NW part of the excavated area. A feldspathic tuff stone with a rectangular cross-section (dims. c. 0.75m x c. 0.5m; H 1m) was excavated and found to have been prised from an underlying glacial erratic and wedged upright with waste from a dressing with iron tools.
