History has a way of revealing itself when we least expect it. During archaeological excavations for the Luas Cross City project, led by Transport Infrastructure Ireland, archaeologists from Rubicon Heritage Services made a remarkable discovery—mass graves containing the remains of over 1,600 victims of Dublin’s devastating 1832 cholera pandemic.

As part of the Castleford Roman Festival on Saturday 18th June Phil Weston, one of Red River Archaeology's senior project managers, attended to lend his expert knowledge to proceedings and show support for the festival. THE APPROACH OF RUBICON HERITAGE TO ARCHIVING AND COMMERCIAL ARCHAEOLOGY IN IRELAND.
During the last 22 years, Rubicon has undertaken a huge range of archaeological projects, ranging from residential and renewable energy developments to larger, more complex schemes, such as flood relief / wastewater schemes and infrastructural improvement schemes. In June, we had the opportunity to conduct an archaeological walkover survey in the Scottish Highlands. The site was remote, and our role was to ensure that sites of archaeological potential would not be damaged during a major construction project.
Rubicon Heritage is very proud that we have achieved recognition of our commitment to the delivery of high quality services by achieving accreditation to the recognised international standards ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001, for Quality, Environmental and Occupational Health and Safety Management. We are the first archaeological contractor in Ireland and the UK to achieve certification for all three standards together.
We are delighted to announce that we have been approved as members of the Considerate Constructors Scheme! Construction sites, companies and suppliers voluntarily register with the Scheme and agree to abide by the Code of Considerate Practice, designed to encourage best practice beyond statutory requirements.
