Archaeological mitigation was conducted in advance of planned gravel extraction works at Brackaghlislea, Draperstown. The proposed site was topsoil-stripped using a back-acting digger fitted with a toothless bucket. The topsoil removal revealed no evidence of archaeological deposits.
Editor’s note: Although this licence was issued during 2004, the report on the work was not received in time for inclusion in the bulletin of that year.
