The National Monuments Service's description

Archaeological test-trenching was carried out in 2006 in advance of the construction of 486 houses with ancillary services at a location c. 0.6km south of Carrigaline town. Two possible burnt features and a number of charcoal-rich deposits as well as a linear spread were revealed in trench 7. Four sherds of prehistoric pottery were recovered from the surface of the features. The burnt features were covered with polythene and were not investigated further at this stage. (Purcell 2006a)

The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
