Excavated (E3481) during 2005 by E. Moore as part of Site 14 at Coolnastudd, which was one of the excavations undertaken in advance of the construction of the N11 Arklow-Gorey link-road. Situated on a SE-facing slope with the headwaters of a SW-NE stream c. 140m to the SW. An area of bunrt mound material (dims 12.8m x 9.3m; max. D 0.4m) overlay eight troughs, but only two were directly beneath the remains of the mound. One trough was rectangular (dims 3.7m x 1.3m; D 0.25m) and the rest were subcircular in form (diam. 1.15m - 3m; D 0.3-0.7m), but some may have functioned as pits. None of the troughs produced evidence of timber-lining, and no hearth was recorded. (Moore 2008) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 12 April, 2012
