Coleman’s Corner is the junction where the Hillhead Road, the
Carntall Road and the ‘Larne Line’ meet. Before the roundabout was
built, there was always a long queue at the end of the Hillhead
Road and Carntall Road every morning and evening. Thankfully, this
is no longer the case. A new dual carriageway between Coleman’s
Corner and Larne has been approved which will bypass Bruslee and
Ballynure.
The roundabout was the site of the Newtownabbey Borough
Council’s Wallace and Gromit floral display last year before it
went on its tour of the local primary schools. The permanent
sculpture which has recently been erected, entitled 'The Flax
Harvesters', is a reminder of the linen industry in the local
area.
The cache is a nano camouflaged to blend in with its
surroundings. Please bring your own pen. There is no need to go on
to the roundabout.
