Excavations were undertaken at Manor East 3 on behalf of Kerry County Council as part of Stage (iii) of the Archaeological Services Contract prior to the commencement of construction of the N22 Tralee Bypass/Tralee to Bealagrellagh, which extends from Lissatanvally townland to Flemby townland.
No evidence of archaeological activity was identified. The waterlogged nature of the area had resulted in discolouration of the subsoil through leeching and gleying of the natural subsoil, which is what initially gave the impression of archaeological features.
