Structure

A loose arrangement (Wth 0.54m; D 0.33m) of brushwood in the drain face. The site consists of approximately seventeen pieces of light brushwood, laid 3-4 pieces deep, with occasional twigs. The pieces are widely spaced and lack a coherent structure. A number of pieces have been worked to chisel points and there is possible evidence of branch-trimming. One piece was identified as alder. The site is in moderately humified Sphagnum peat. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 1994. 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
