What is recorded here

A band of tightly packed brushwood, along with some twigs, was located on the field surface was being milled (exposed area 1.3m NE-SW; 0.6m NW-SE). Approximately ten pieces of brushwood (diam. 0.02-0.03m) were present and all were aligned NE-SW. The band appeared to extend into the bog at the SW end and may have been intact under ground level beyond that point. The evidence suggested that this was likely to be the remains of a platform.
