Project (July 1994)
In order to carry out the Archaeological requirement of an environmental assessment at the proposed locations of three windfarms, a programme of documentary and archival research and field survey was undertaken by GUARD in July 1994. The work was commissioned by Energy Unlimited on behalf of The New World Power Company Limited. Of the three sites examined, Hart Hill (SC03), was the only one to be free of archaeological structures. The two remaining sites Drumderg (SC01) and Dulater Hill (SC04) have a number of archaeological structures in the immediate area but few in the proposed construction area. With slight modifications in layout and careful planning these should not be an obstacle to the proposed projects.
