What is recorded here
Two pieces of brushwood (exposed L 0.38 and 0.62m; diam. 0.05 and 0.02m) extended N-S in a WSW drain face (exposed area Wth 1.8m; T 0.25m). Underneath was a possible peg (exposed L 0.09m; diam. 0.025m). There was an accumulation of ten-twenty twigs (av. diam. 0.01m) in the vicinity. In the opposite drain face was a piece of brushwood (diam. 0.055m). Two further pieces of brushwood (diams. 0.03m and 0.04m) extended E-W. The evidence suggested that this was likely to be the remains of a platform. (Dunne 1999, 51, 99BG0010A)
