Designated sites and recorded monuments
Designated sites
- Special Area of Conservation: Slaney River Valley SAC 000781
Recorded monuments
- WX020-089 Burnt mound
Description
Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as Crane 1 (Hardy et al. 2010, 72). It is situated on a level landscape with an E-W section of a NE-SW stream c. 30m to the N. Full excavation (E4257) by C. Hardy recorded a spread of burnt and broken stone (dims 3.3m x 2.3m; T 0.3m), but no other features were recorded except a NW-SE post-medieval ditch that is marked on the 1924 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. This produced the only artefacts, including the handle of a black-glazed vessel. (Hull 2011; Hardy 2013) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 28 November, 2013
- WX020-136 Pit
Description
Located towards the bottom of a N-facing slope and c. 80m SE of a meandering E-W stream. Archaeological monitoring of topsoil removal (E004791) during the construction phase of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy motorway in October 2016 identified a single pit (dims 1.7m E-W; 1.5m N-S; max. D 0.65m) which was fully resolved with the same licence. It had three fills, the lowest of which included charcoal which proved to be entirely oak. No artefacts were recovered but a fragment of the charcoal produced a C14 date of 3893-3661 cal. BC, placing it firmly in the early Neolithic.
