What is recorded here

A birch roundwood (L 5m min.; diam. 0.12m) on the field surface. A chisel point is recorded at one end of the piece, but the other end has been destroyed by milling. A number of other isolated pieces of worked wood are recorded in this area and may represent disturbed elements of a more substantial site. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 1993. 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

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
