- DU004-062 Enclosure
Description
A sub-circular enclosure visible as a crop mark on an aerial photograph. A circular enclosure occurs in the same field to the west (DU004-063----) (SMR file; pers. comm. T. Condit). This site was subject to geophysical survey (05R062) and test excavation (05E1063) which revealed a series of pits and ditches within an enclosing ditch, truncated by intensive agriculture (Lohan , 2005). No visible remains. Compiled by: David O’Connor Updated by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 6 November 2014
- DU004-063 Enclosure
Description
A circular enclosure visible as a crop mark on an aerial photograph. A sub-circular enclosure occurs in the same field to the east (DU004-062----) (SMR file; pers. comm. T. Condit). Located on west facing slope in a gently undulating landscape. This site was subject to investiagtion but was not picked up by geophysical survey (Lohan 2005) that confirmed DU004-062 Compiled by: David O’Connor Updated by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 6 November 2014
- DU004-072 Habitation site
Description
Geophysical survey (Licence no. 05R062) in advance of a proposed landfill identified rectilinear anomalies. Test excavation (Licence no. 05E1063) confirmed the presence of a rectilinear enclosure bisected by a drainage ditch. Domestic waste recovered from the trenches, such as disarticulated animal bone suggest a settlement site, but no datable evidence was retrieved (Lohan 2006, 25).

- DU004-073 Enclosure
Description
Geophysical survey (Licence no. 05R062) in advance of a proposed landfill identified a circular enclosure. Test excavation (Licence no. 05E1063) confirmed the presence of a sub-circular enclosure (33m diam.) There are a number of internal features suggestive of dwellings. Animal bone and burnt material was recovered from the ditch (1.1m depth) but no datable material (Lohan 2006, 24). Situated on the northern slope of an east-west ridge.

- DU007-040 Ecclesiastical site
Description
The placename 'Nevitt' has been in use since the 14th century suggesting antiquity. It may have derived from Neimhead or in Old Irish Nemed meaning a sanctuary site (Lohan 2006, 4). More precise placename evidence in the centre of this townland i. e. 'Chapel bank' and 'church Park' supports this interpretation. Geophysical analysis (05R062) of this area identified portion of a possible multi-phase large multi-ditched enclosure with radials and external ancillary activity.

- DU007-071 Enclosure
Description
Geophysical survey (Licence no. 05R062) undertaken in advance of a proposed landfill site identified a sub-circular enclosure (c.40m diam.) with possible internal features (Lohan 2006, 7). Compiled by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 4 February 2015
