Description
This is the record for the excavation of various features by Kevin Martin (E3511) on the Gorey-Arklow link road. The excavation revealed a circular alignment of postholes representing a structure and associated pits, a large N-S running ditch, and an isolated hearth. No dating evidence was recovered though the excavator considered these features probably prehistoric in date. (Martin 2008) Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 22 January 2013
