Recorded monuments
- WX007-081 Excavation - miscellaneous
Description
This site was excavated (E3679) during 2005 as a part of the N11 Gorey to Arklow link at a location used as a construction compound. Situated on top of a slight rise. Soil-stripping revealed a single pit (dims 1.04m x 0.88m; D 0.24m) cut in fire-reddened subsoil that was filled with a black silty clay with charcoal flecks. (Breen 2008) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 16 March, 2012
- WX007-092 Enclosure - large enclosure
Description
Located on a gentle NW-facing slope on what was once the demesne of Bullockhouse Farm House. The cropmark of an oval area (max. dims c. 140m E-W; c. 55m N-S) defined by a single ditch is visible on Google Earth (28/06/2018; 14/07/2018). Towards its E end it is cut by a NNE-SSW field bank with another field bank extending SE from it. The latter is one side of a lane that extended to a farmhouse c. 160m distant, but only these features are represented on the 1839 and 1902 editions of the OS 6-inch map. It was first reported by Catherine McLoughlin. See the attached view from Google Earth (28/06/2018) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload; 8 April 2021
