An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at 42 Ballysally Road, north of Coleraine town. The centre of the site was truncated by concrete ground beams associated with a recently demolished bungalow. The rest of the site showed a simple soil profile of topsoil over natural clay and, despite the potential for early Christian remains in the area, nothing of archaeological significance was noted.
