Report authored by Martina McCarthy of GeoArc Ltd. for Kenneth McLeod. GeoArc was commissioned to survey a site adjacent to Brackloon Castle, Clonfert, County Galway. McLeod, the owner of the castle, requested a geophysical investigation in advance of any restoration works on the castle.

Attached are two letters from McLeod to Markus Casey; one enclosing a map of the location (3 April 2002; 2pp) and another accompanying the attached report (11 April 2002, 1p).
