The accessioned records are of a miscellaneous nature covering testamentary collections, National School records, estate collections, private correspondence and much more. The accessioned records may range from one single item to a collection of many tens of documents. All are worthy of interest. The prefix 999 ceased to be used in 1997 and all accessions – whether large or small – are now given the relevant annual prefix. It is hoped that all users of this finding-aid will find something of interest in it. Paper print-outs of this finding-aid are to be found on the public shelves in the Niall McCarthy Reading Room of the National Archives.

An area was fully excavated by Elizabeth Connolly under licence to the National Monuments Section of the Heritage and Planning Division, Department of Environment, Heritage and Local Government (Licence 03E1569) for Irish Archaeological Consultancy Ltd. The excavation took place between 27 October and 4 November 2003. Centreline testing of the route of the proposed N7 Naas Road Widening and Interchanges Scheme was carried out by the author in August 2003 (03E1265). This resulted in the identification of archaeological remains at four adjacent locations within Kill Hill Townland. It was clear that the proposed road construction would impact negatively upon the identified archaeological remains.

Editors Foreword Welcome to Trowel Volume XIV, student journal of UCD’s School of Archaeology. We are delighted to feature in this 25th anniversary edition twelve articles from undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as graduate scholars from a variety of interest areas. It was particularly nice to see such a positive response from undergraduates interested in making contributions to the journal this year. The decision to open up to this section of the student body was, in part, to celebrate the 25 years in which Trowel has enjoyed their support and readership, but it was also a recognition that undergraduates are key to the future of archaeological research and Trowel has long endeavoured to provide a platform to that end. We wish to take this opportunity to express our thanks to the many authors who have given their time and energy to make contributions to this journal. In addition to the authors of the twelve articles, this volume also contains a book review by Mick Corcoran on Áine Foley’s The Royal Manors of Medieval Co. Dublin: Crown and Community (Four Courts Press, 2013). It also features reflections by Cóilín Ó Drisceoil and Dr.
