At the SW angle of Athboy town but outside the line of the town wall. Excavation (01E0883) revealed two masonry walls that were parallel with each other and the robber trench of the town wall. One wall (L 6m; Wth 0.6m) was double-faced with a rubble core while the other was clay-bonded (L 1.9m; Wth 1.25m). The walls are undated and may have been unrelated to each other but are covered by post-medieval garden soils(O’Hara 2002, 2004, 401-02). (Danaher 2001; 2003)
