The National Monuments Service's description
Geophysical survey (Licence no. 05R062) in advance of a proposed landfill identified rectilinear anomalies. Test excavation (Licence no. 05E1063) confirmed the presence of a rectilinear enclosure bisected by a drainage ditch. Domestic waste recovered from the trenches, such as disarticulated animal bone suggest a settlement site, but no datable evidence was retrieved (Lohan 2006, 25).
