What is recorded here

Excavation (Licence nos. 06E0288ext. and 08E0032ext.) was undertaken at the site in advance of the Ballycoolin road realignment. It indicated that the area close to the ‘site of’ Cappogue Castle (DU014-027---- ) was used for domestic occupation and agricultural activity during the medieval period. Located adjacent to structure (DU014-16002-) this monument was one of several possible structures identified and comprised foundations two perpendicular slot trenches (9m long). Pottery recovered from the vicinity indicates occupation during the 12th – 14th centuries (McQuade 2010, 76).
