- KK027-082 Enclosure
Description
A subrectangular area (dims. c. 59m x 45m) outlined on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map and 1948 revision. On inspection it was found to be a rectangular area with rounded corners, defined by an internal fosse (Wth 1.2m; D 0.7m) and an outer bank (H 0.6m; Wth 1m) with an outer bank (stone faced in places internally). These were deemed quite fresh, probably 19th century in date. Shallow stone quarry workings were noted in the interior. The enclosure may have been constructed to contain the quarry when in use or it may have been subsequently constructed to form a clump of trees or a fox covert. The deciduous trees within the enclosure are older than those around it. Compiled by: Mary Tunney Date of upload: 31 January 2012
- KK031-102 Fulacht fia
Description
In an area of low-lying pasture. Excavated in 2007 in advance of the N9/N10 Kilcullen to Waterford road improvement scheme (Licence no. E3677). A subcircular possible trough (1.5m x 1.3m x 0.52m) filled with heat-shattered stone and charcoal-rich soil and a number of pits, the largest of which (3.5m x 3.5m x 0.9m) contained a silty fill with charcoal inclusions. Other pits were filled with charcoal-rich silty clay as were a number of possible post-holes and stake-holes. These formed no particular pattern. A small fragment of ash yielded a radiocarbon date of 2272-2039 cal BC (UBA-10989). (Lyne 2010, 243, no. 912; Lyne and Coughlan 2010) Compiled by: Mary Tunney Date of upload: 26 November 2013
