The National Monuments Service's description

A 'small burnt mound spread' was uncovered during the testing phase in advance of construction of the N9/N10 Kilcullen-Waterford Road (Excavation Licence number E3732). Due to continuous flooding it was not possible to excavate this potential monument. (O' Carroll, E. 2009, 1-2)
