Earthsound Archaeological Geophysics were commissioned by Ms. D. Murphy of Archaeological Consultancy Services Limited, to execute a geophysical survey adjacent to an archaeological site within the proposed M7 Portlaoise to Castletown / M8 Portlaoise to Cullahill Road Scheme, County Laois. The geophysical survey area was located beyond C.P.O. boundary of the road scheme. The geophysical survey was requested to determine the presence/absence of unknown archaeological features associated with the results of archaeological excavations, which revealed the presence of a large enclosure, known as Parknahown 5, which contained a number of burials. The site was assessed via high resolution magnetic gradiometer and earth resistance surveys. Permissions to undertake the survey were obtained from the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (Licence Number A015/153-R35). Primary Archive held by Naas NRDO. Secondary Archive held by Earthsound Archaeological Geophysics.
