Magnetometry survey at the RIC Barracks<\/p><\/div>\n

Project:<\/strong> Annacarty Remembered: RIC Barracks, Co. Tipperary.<\/span><\/p>\n

Year:<\/strong> 2016<\/p>\n

Client:<\/strong> Wolfhound Archaeology<\/a>, funded by Tipperary County Council<\/a>, Ireland 1916-2016 and The Heritage Council<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Aim:<\/strong>\u00a0In June 2016, we carried out extensive Magnetometer<\/a>, Electromagnetic Induction<\/a>, Ground Penetrating Radar<\/a>,\u00a0Earth Resistance<\/a> Surveys\u00a0and Metal Detection<\/a> surveys at the RIC Barracks in Annacarty as part of a large\u00a0commemoration event which was also filmed by\u00a0RTE’s new television series John Creedon’s Epic East. <\/em>The film crew were very interested in the geophysical survey and obtained some great drone and GoPro footage of our work.<\/p>\n

Community Engagement:<\/strong>\u00a01 volunteer worked with Earthsound geophysicists for 1 day (volunteer labour contribution: \u20ac164). The survey was filmed for RTE television and culminated in a large commemoration on the last day of survey, attended by more than 220 people, with Earthsound geophysicists on hand to explain the survey, it’s purpose and findings.<\/p>\n

Outcomes:<\/strong> The 2016 geophysical survey culminated in a large commemoration ceremony (see below) attended by local school children and adults, the Army and many local politicians. The survey results will be integrated in to a management plan for the site.<\/p>\n
