What is recorded here

A single roundwood and two fragmentary pieces of brushwood on the field surface (L 3.25m min.; Wth 0.65m; D 0.075m). A bulldozer machine has extensively damaged this site. The brushwood (diam. 0.015-0.03m) survives as fragments and bark. A very fragile, possible stone toolmark survives at one end of the roundwood. The site lies in well-humified fen peat with Phragmites and woody roots. 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. The original survey description was compiled by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin). Assessed and revised by: Caimin O'Brien, Paul Walsh Date of upload: 23 May 2011
