Unauthorised unmonitored stripping had removed both the topsoil and upper subsoil at a site at Coleraine Road, Glebe, Portstewart. Nothing was found upon restripping except eleven pieces of flint, including three blades and two cores, and nineteen sherds of post-medieval blackware. All were residual from the previous stripping. No other archaeological material was uncovered. The flint, though poor, was probably Neolithic.
