Ardbraccan 4, County Meath, Ireland

Field system.

This site was located within Contract 3 (Navan Bypass) of the proposed M3 Clonee to North of Kells motorway and was identified during advanced testing by Neil Fairburn in May 2004 (04E0586), although geophysical anomalies had been noted within the general area (Bartlett-Clark Consultancy 2002).

Full resolution occurred in August 2006 and revealed a north-south running field ditch and five, parallel furrows. These features are likely to be 18th or early 19th century in date.
