This trackway (L 660m; Wth 0.6-9m; D 0.33-1.07m), orientated ENE-WSW, was visible at 43 sightings in a drain face across the SE portion of Edera Bog. It ran on a similar orientation and to the N of a togher (LF026-034----), the two separating further as they extended to the SW. The composition of the trackway varied somewhat along its length but it was generally composed of densely packed stone, marl and gravel. At some sightings brushwood was recorded below the gravel and stones, suggesting that it may have been laid down as a foundation. Radiocarbon dating revealed a date range of AD 690-880.
