What is recorded here

Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as Crane 1 (Hardy et al. 2010, 72). It is situated on a level landscape with an E-W section of a NE-SW stream c. 30m to the N. Full excavation (E4257) by C. Hardy recorded a spread of burnt and broken stone (dims 3.3m x 2.3m; T 0.3m), but no other features were recorded except a NW-SE post-medieval ditch that is marked on the 1924 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. This produced the only artefacts, including the handle of a black-glazed vessel. (Hull 2011; Hardy 2013) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 28 November, 2013
