Recorded monuments

• WI045-014001 Enclosure
  Description

  Discovered in 1998 during archaeological monitoring of works associated with the IDA Industrial Park (Excavation Licence 98E0257). Excavation revealed a rectangular area (14m E-W x 8m) defined by a U-shaped trench (Wth 0.34m-0.44m; D 0.04m - 0.2m) with an entrance (Wth 1.35m) on the S side. There was a large amount of charcoal and burning present which led the excavator to suggest 'that the trench held a wooden palisade that burnt down. The presence of only one post-hole, that at the east side of the entrance, suggests that the trench may have contained a sill-beam in which posts were set that have now decayed without trace.' (Cotter 2000, 220). Finds included one sherd of pottery and numerous pieces of flint. (ibid) Compiled by: Claire Breen Date of upload: 24 January 2013

• WI045-015 Burnt mound
  Description

  This is the record for two adjacent burnt mounds excavated by Anne Connolly (97E0128) as part of the Arklow bypass scheme. One was a subcircular spread of burnt material (c. 7m NE-SW; 5.5m (NW-SE; depth 0.2m) from which one fragmented piece of worked flint was recovered. The second spread of burnt material was broadly subcircular in shape (12.5m NE-SW; 10.8m NW-SE; max. depth 0.45m). Associated with these a wooden platform consisting of narrow lengths of wood covering an area 1.9m in length and 1.4m in width. Beneath this platform was a series of wooden stakes which did not form any clear patterns. A sample from this wood was dated by dendrochronology and had a felling date of late-856 BC/early-855 BC.
