What is recorded here
A brushwood structure or probable hurdle. Located 1.5m south of the Class 1 Togher ME046-035----, it is a light brushwood structure or probable hurdle at least 1m square and exposed on the field surface. ME046-036---- occurs within a cluster of sites situated between the western edge of the bog and the dryland-island within the bog. (Bermingham 2014)
The find spot was relocated by GPS in 2015 (licence 15E0167), but no remains were extant. The site was dated to 1650-1380 BC. It was subsequently discovered to be the same site previously recorded during the 2005 Peatland Survey carried out by ADS Ltd as KND010 (Whitaker 2017).
