What is recorded here

A sparse deposit of fragmented mixed brushwood and some twigs (L 1.23m min.; Wth 1m; D 0.05m). The wood is predominantly orientated N-S direction and concentrated on the W side of the site. The wood is in poor condition and set in poorly humified Sphagnum peat with some Eriophorum and ericaceous remains. 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
