An archaeological evaluation was carried out at a site at Mobuy, Co. Derry, in response to a planning application for a new dwelling. The site is close to the remains of a megalithic tomb (LDY045–016). The evaluation consisted of four mechanically excavated test-trenches, which ranged in length from 5m to 16m. The test-trenches contained no finds, features or deposits of archaeological significance.
