What is recorded here
A regular deposit (L 2.55m min.; Wth 1.04m; D 0.06m) of densely packed brushwood and twigs on the field surface. The elements (diam. 0.012-0.036m) are predominantly orientated N-S, one to two pieces deep. Twigs are dispersed throughout the deposit, which is in well-humified fen peat with Sphagnum and unidentified reeds. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 2002. The evidence is not sufficient to warrant its acceptance as the remains of an archaeological monument.
