- Description
-
This report presents the final results of an archaeological excavation undertaken at College Green, Dublin 2 between 16 and 25 July 2014 in accordance with Licence No. 14E0003. These works were undertaken by Rubicon Heritage Services Ltd. for GMC (Ireland) Ltd on behalf of the Railway Procurement Agency (RPA), now Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII). Archaeological monitoring and excavation for Utilities Works was carried out along the route of the planned Luas Cross City (LCC) light rail system at College Green, Westmoreland Street and Hawkins Street under Licence No. 14E0003. This licence was in force from January 2014 until it was superseded at the start of October 2014 by Licence No. 14E0405 (granted to James Hession) for archaeological monitoring and excavation of the same section of Luas Utilities Works. This monitoring/excavation programme is the subject of a separate final report (Gilligan et al. 2016). During the course of the monitoring programme at College Green, an inhumation burial was identified within a utilities trench located slightly to the north of the main entrance to Trinity College Dublin (TCD) and positioned parallel to the pavement running around the perimeter of TCD. As this burial would be directly impacted by the Utilities Works programme, a full archaeological excavation was undertaken in order to ensure appropriate preservation by record. Due to the significance of this discovery it is the subject of this separate standalone report. Full archaeological excavation was undertaken of the affected section of the utilities trench. During the course of the excavation a further four burials were identified. One of these burials was also fully excavated, while three of the burials were only partially excavated as they extended beyond the limits of the utilities trench. It is possible that further associated burials could be located within this part of College Green. This is supported by the presence of disarticulated human bone—representing the remains at least one further adult individual—in addition to the five in situ burials. It should be noted that archaeological monitoring of construction groundworks as a component of LCC Main Infrastructure Works contract is ongoing and, to date has not uncovered any indications of further burials in the College Green area. Excavations in this area generally did not exceed 1 m—works are indeed deeper elsewhere for Overhead Conductor System (OCS) foundations, but not for the trackbed at this location.
