The National Monuments Service's description
In 1951 burials were discovered during the digging of foundations for the Bon Secour Hospital. The burials were inspected by A. T. Lucas from the National Museum. Excavations took place in the vicinity of the hospital in 1989 and 1996, but no archaeological features were discovered (Mc Mahon 1990, 19-20; Carroll 1997, 34).
