Monitoring was carried out in the townland of Glenadush, Co. Tyrone, as a requirement of a planning application for a replacement dwelling. The proposed site lies c. 100m to the north-west of a Late Bronze Age occupation site (TYR054–031). Four trenches were opened in total (measuring 9m, 10m, 11m and 16m in length by 2m wide), located around the current dwelling. Topsoil and hardcore layers were mechanically removed in all trenches to natural subsoil, with nothing of archaeological significance uncovered.
