Madam, - I could not understand the fuss created by archaeologists over the 13th century Carrickmines Castle. God knows, the country has its share of 13th- to 16th-century castles.
This time, however, I am fully behind Dr Patrick Wallace and all the other archaeologists and environmentalists who oppose the present route of the M3.
For the life of me, I can't understand why the motorway cannot be moved a few miles to one side or the other of the Tara archaeology "field" - firstly, to satisfy genuine concerns and secondly to expedite the completion of the motorways to facilitate the harassed motorist. - Yours, etc,
Dr MICHAEL CONRY, Chapelstown, Carlow.
