This was the fourth phase of monitoring of groundworks associated with the construction of a large housing estate at Colliswood, Killeen, Tralee, Co. Kerry. The site is in the former Cromwellian estate of Oakpark, built by Rowland Bateman in the late 17th century (Excavations 1999, No. 346; Excavations 2000, No. 449). All topsoil was removed by a track machine using a 2m-wide flat bucket. Nothing of archaeological significance was exposed.
