• DU015-015 Tide mill - unclassified
  Description

  According to Flanagan (1984, 108) there was an early tidal mill at the mouth of the river. From the 12th century the Portmarnock corn mill and surrounding lands were owned by the Abbey of St Mary, Dublin. By 1650 there was only one mill, the tide water mill at Connyborough, situated just east of Portmarnock bridge and connected to the land by a causeway. It is shown on Rocque's map (1760). In 1799 Thomas Dickinson of Drumnigh took a lease of the mill and a year later knocked it down, rebuilding to three storeys. By 1867 the mill was unused as it had no water power. Damaged by a storm in 1903 and unroofed by 1912 it was taken down in the 1940s (Ahern 2013, 207). The remains of the mill comprise the footing of walls, sluice gate, 19th century mill race and fragmentary remains of the walls revetting the mill pond and inlet.

• DU015-055 Enclosure
  Description

  Located towards the western end of an east-west ridge with extensive views of the coast and Ireland's Eye. An aerial photograph (OS 8, 7654) shows cropmark evidence for a roughly circular univallate enclosure. Geophysical survey and two test excavations were undertaken at the site in advance of proposed development. The geophysical revealed the presence of a large circular enclosure, (c. 70m in diam.) that abutted an unusual ‘avenue’ feature, defined by two parallel ditches leading away from an east-facing entrance. Initial archaeological testing (Licence no. 00E0732) consisted of a single trench situated diagonally across the site, that confirmed the presence of a ditch, entrance and archaeological material both internally and external to the main enclosure ditch. A decorated bone bead was recovered (Wallace, A. 2002, 115). Further test excavation (Licence no. 07E0547) consisted of opening sections across the enclosure ditch and 'avenue'. The enclosure ditch ( c. 7m wide x 2m deep) was filled by a number of silty clay deposits that contained much charcoal, butchered animal bone and sea shell (oyster, mussel, razor shell, periwinkle, cockles etc.). The lower fills were waterlogged in nature and contained lenses of organic material including decayed wood and grass. A charcoal sample from the primary fill was dated to AD 687–887 (2 Sigma). A section was also excavated through the southern avenue ditch and this revealed a cut measuring c. 5m wide by 1.2m deep. It had a concave profile and was filled by silty/sandy clay deposits that contained occasional seashell, butchered animal bone and charcoal (Moriarty, C. 2008:477 www.excavations.ie) According to the Portmarnock South LAP, the buffer zone for the monument will form part the open space within the green infrastructure network. The site is currently fenced within overgrown wasteland. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout Updated by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 27 January 2015

• DU015-118 Enclosure
  Description

  A circular enclosure visible as a crop mark on an aerial photograph (SMR file; pers. comm. T. Condit). This site was subject to three geophysical surveys. Geophysical survey (Licence no. 07R0230) was undertaken in advance of proposed realignment. It identified a pennanular ditch (c.30m diam.) with an entrance to the east (Nicholls 2008). Another geophyscial survey (Licence no. 07R0230EXT), also in advance of a proposed road realignment immediately north, identified another circular feature (c.25m diam.) which may be associated (Harrison 2008). A third geophysical survey (14R0045) in advance of the Greater Dublin Drainage Scheme identified the southern limit of the same enclosure, the ditch of which may contain burnt remains (Bonsall 2014, 9).

• DU015-130 Enclosure
  Description

  The site was subject to geophysical survey (Licence no. 07R0230) in advance of a proposed road realignment. It confirmed the presence of a sub circular enclosure (34m in diam.) that contains internal responses suggestive of pits and postholes (Harrison 2008, 8).

• DU015-135 Enclosure
  Description

  An enclosure was identified by geophysical survey (Licence no. 07R0230 ext.) undertaken in advance of a road realignment scheme. The circular enclosure (25m diam.) is located 27m N of another enclosure DU015-118--- on the S-facing slope of a low E – W ridge. Internal responses indicative of pits and postholes have been identified suggesting an area of occupation or settlement (Harrison 2008, 8).

• DU015-156 Burnt mound
  Description

  The results of this excavation were summarised by Gill McLoughlin as follows; 'Area 5 was located towards the east end of the sewer pipeline to the Coast Road and comprised a large suboval or keyhole shaped pit (C61). The pit was filled with black soil containing charcoal and burnt stones and is most likely to have been associated with a burnt mound of which no further trace was found. It is possible that remnants of a burnt mound could remain outside of the area of the pipeline. The full extent of the pit was not excavated as it extended north beyond the limit of the trench required for the pipeline. Excavation of this area took place over five days from 25th‐29th July 2016 with two archaeologists and the area within the pipeline trench was fully resolved. The pit itself was almost keyhole shaped, with the southeast end being smaller and shallower and forming a step 0.43m deep to access the pit. The northwest end of the pit was much bigger and oval or sub‐circular in shape. Overall the pit measured 5.2m northwest – southeast, 2.4m southwest – northeast and it was excavated to a depth of 1.2m. It was not possible to reach the base of the pit in the centre due to water flowing in from below at a fast rate, but it appeared most likely that the base would not have been any more than another 0.1‐0.2m in depth. The pit was excavated to 3.48m OD. There were five fills contained within the pit. The basal fill, C58 was located in the deepest part of the pit and comprised a loose mid‐grey gritty sandy clay with occasional inclusions of burnt stones and seashells (cockle, whelk, periwinkle), occasional animal bone and moderate charcoal flecks. A sample of alder charcoal from the basal fill was selected for radiocarbon dating and returned a date range of 3797+/‐40 BP, calibrated to BC 2434‐2051 (2 sigma, UBA‐34919) placing this activity in the Early Bronze Age. Above C58, the main fill of the pit comprised moderately compact black silty clay with abundant burnt stones, occasional inclusions of charcoal, seashell (cockle, razor) and animal bone (C57). One flint platform flake was recovered from this fill (16E0101:57:1) (Driscoll, Appendix 5.2). This deposit would have been associated with the heating of stones in a fire for use in heating water in a trough and would have found its way into the waterhole after the feature had gone out of use. It is likely that the water would have been taken from the large waterhole and used in a trough in the immediate vicinity. A localised deposit of compact yellow brown sandy silt was present within the main fill in the southeast of the feature (C60) and represented redeposited natural subsoil. Above C57 a compact mid‐grey silty sand contained occasional charcoal and appeared to be a blending of fill C57 below and the upper fill C56 and it was not noted as a separate context during excavation (C59). The upper fill; C56 comprised a sterile compact yellow brown silty clay and represents post‐use silting of the waterhole. A single flint platform flake was recovered from this deposit (16E0101:56:1) (Driscoll, Appendix 5.2). Of the small quantity of animal bone recovered from this feature, the only identifiable elements were from a calf (Beglane, Appendix 5.7)' (McLoughlin 2019, 317-8)'.
