Development at the site in Nantinan, Killorglin, Co. Kerry, for the phased infill with ca 17,625 tonnes of waste soil and stone (LoW 17 05 04) and a limited amount of inert construction & demolition material, as provided for under a waste facility permit and, where appropriate, under the provisions of Article 27 of the European Communities (Waste Directive) Regulations 2011. The infill plan for the site provides for a 5 -10 metre setback from site boundaries and land drains: It is intended to raise the existing ground level of the 1.49 ha site to be no greater than the level of the adjacent Roadway L4035. The site will subsequently be used as a sorting and recycling facility for inert waste from Construction and Demolition activities, to produce recycled aggregates in accordance with National End-of-Waste Decision EoW-N001/2023. A Screening Report for Appropriate Assessment and Natura Impact Statement have been prepared in relation to the proposed development and has determined that with proposed mitigation measures the development, individually or in combination with other plans and projects, would not be likely to have a significant effect on any European sites. An Environmental Impact Assessment Screening Report has been prepared and submitted with the applicaton.

Recorded monuments
- KE057-037 Standing stone - pair
Description
In pasture, on level ground. An upright stone (dims. 1.05m x 0.75m; H 2m), orientated NE-SW, and rectangular in plan and elevation. Some scratch marks are visible on the corner of the SW face of the stone. In the 1840s 'two high rocks' called gallauns were recorded here (OSNB, Killorglin, no. 1, 5). There is a rath (KE057-038----) c. 190m to the NE. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011
- KE057-038 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, on level ground. A circular area (diam. 40m) defined by the remains of two earthen banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank (Wth 4.4m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 0.45m) was, according to local information, levelled in the 1930s/40s. The fosse (Wth 3.2m; D 0.15m) is evident E-ENE. The remains of the possible outer bank are only evident along the E arc. The interior slopes down to the E, where there is a waterlogged area, obscured by reeds. There is a causeway entrance (Wth c. 5m) at E. This may be the rath which was recorded as 'W. Nantenane fort' in the 1840s (OSNB, Killorglin, no. 1, 5). There is a standing stone (KE057-037----) c. 190m to the SW. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011
- KE057-039 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, on level ground in the corner of a field. A circular area (diam. c. 18m) defined by a low rise (Wth 4m; int. H 0.1m; ext. H 0.5m). Faint traces of an intervening fosse and an outer bank are visible WSW-NW. The rath is indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) with a limekiln on the bank at NW. This is probably the rath which was recorded as 'middle Nantenane fort' in the 1840s (OSNB, Killorglin, no. 1, 5). Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011
- KE057-040 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, on the break of a gentle SE-facing slope. A low rise and undulations define an area (diam. c. 38m) in the approximate location of the rath. According to local information, the rath was levelled 'years ago'. This is probably the rath which was recorded as 'East Nantenane fort' in the 1840s (OSNB, Killorglin, no. 1, 5). It is indicated as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) on the 1846 OS 6-inch map. An oval enclosure (c. 40m N-S; c. 35m E-W) is indicated on the 1895 OS 6-inch map with a field boundary curving to respect it along the W arc. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011
- KE057-114 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, on level ground. An arc of earthen bank (Wth 3.3m; int. H 1.9m; ext. H 2.6m) evident NE-W is the remains of a rath (diam. c. 38m). According to local information, the N half of the rath was levelled 'decades ago'. A field drain skirts the base of the bank, externally NE-WSW. Remnants of a breeze-block wall abut the bank externally at WSW. A garden shed abuts the bank externally at W. A small drystone wall extends N from the bank terminal at W. Mature tree grow along the bank. The S portion of the interior, which is now a garden, is raised (H 0.7m) to compensate for the hillslope. According to local information, a possible entrance was located at NNW, in a poorly drained area. There is a possible souterrain (KE057-114001-) in the levelled N half of the rath. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork. Date of upload: 31 January 2011
- KE057-114001 Souterrain
Description
In a rath (KE057-114----), which is used as a garden. According to local information, a souterrain was uncovered when the N half of the rath was levelled decades ago. An irregular area of differential growth occurs approximately within the original N sector of the rath and may indicate the location of the souterrain.
