The site lies 75m SW of Ballinacurra Bridge (LI013-012----). A pre-disturbance assessment of a 300m stretch of Ballynaclogh River (Area UA2) was undertaken and an archaeological assessment of Ballinacurra Bridge was made. A series of timber pilings were located 75m downstream of the bridge (www.excavations.ie 2005, No. 957).
