What is recorded here
An alder stake (diam. 0.05m) projecting above the field surface at an angle of 50°. The piece was in poor condition as a result of machine damage but had a wedge point at one end. The position of the piece may suggest that it was modern. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 1997. The evidence is not sufficient to warrant its acceptance as the remains of an archaeological monument.
