Testing was undertaken in the townland of Ballyman, Co. Dublin, on 18 December 2002 before a proposed diversion of 110kv ESB overhead lines required to facilitate the proposed construction of a new golf-course for DĂșn Laoghaire Golf Club.

The area of testing was confined to the south of the Ballyman Road, in the vicinity of a possible castle (SMR 26:63), a pit burial (SMR 26:113), possible standing stones (SMR 28:1) and ecclesiastical remains (SMR 28:2). The proposed locations of two pairs of poles and a pylon were subjected to the programme of testing. No features or finds of archaeological interest were uncovered.
