What is recorded here

Eight pieces of brushwood (diam. 0.025-0.05m), one roundwood (diam. 0.07m), occasional twigs and a vertical peg (Wth 1.9m; D 0.58m). The elements are irregularly laid and widely spaced. The site is situated in poorly humified Sphagnum peat with ericaceous remains. A number of regularly laid pieces of brushwood are located on the field surface 3.5m to the N and may be related to this site. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 2001. 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
