Well the road and its destruction continues to plough its way across an incredibly archaeologically rich site.......
This morning we have heard that this souterrain is now within 7metres of the slip road being built as part of the project. It seems to have gone
unnoticed by the construction company - not to those of us who have been
around the area. It has been known for at least a year to protesters.
Yes, that is the point, this is an incredible area and there are
probably more sites in that area, the Lismullin complex as I refer to
it. As they only checked the actual M-way route the surrounding area has
not been monitoried but in this case even the slip road was not monitored.
The whole place is covered in thick woodland and very overgrown so the
archaeology is not immediately visible.
