What is recorded here
Situated on the flood-plain of the NW-SE River Slaney, which is c. 130m to the SW. Archaeological testing (97E0374) recorded three rows of seven, evenly-spaced pits (dims. 1.4m x 1.1m; D 1.1m), each pit being lined with wood and water-proofed with marl. The pits related to standing walls, and are interpreted as a post-medieval tannery. (Bennet 1998)
