What is recorded here

This togher (L 465m; Wth 1.07m) was visible at 31 sightings in a drain face and on the bog surface in the SE portion of Edera Bog. It was orientated NE-SW and lay c. 200m to the S of and parallel to a trackway (LF026-033---) and a togher (LF026-034----). It was composed of densely laid roundwood and brushwood longitudinals underlain by transversely laid roundwood and brushwood. A small number of possible pegs were also recorded. Radiocarbon dating revealed a date range of AD 610-670. Another togher (LF026-036----), on the same orientation, ran across and above it, indicating that it was later in date.
