I would like to thank Alish Martin of Antrim Borough Council for giving me permission to photograph the site. This site is now covered by the new council offices.
.
Here you can see what is the remains of an animal shed. The black section is where the wooden structure of the building has been burnt down.
What is happening here is that all the locations are being fed into the G.P.S. so the they can have an accurate map of the site.
This shows the various layers of soil and are marked with the white squares.
Here is a close-up showing the different layers of soil.
As you can see from the photograph the dig was quite large and stretched into another field. Mostly what has been found has been ditches.
Here they are investigating the layers of soil.
This young lady is drawing the layout of the ditch in question and her name is Bronagh. . This is an Irish name and means "Sorrow, A Queen held captive in Rostrevor" . . . .so we had a queen working in Antrim.
