A deposit (Wth 1.42m; D 0.35m) of brushwood and twigs on the field surface and in the opposing drain face. The main concentration of material is a deposit (Wth 0.5m) at the E extent with three pieces of brushwood 0.4m to the W. The brushwood (diam. 0.01-0.05m) is irregularly laid. There is a single stake 0.98m to the S on the field surface. This wood is in poor to moderate condition with one degraded chisel point evident. The site is in poorly humified Sphagnum peat rich in ericaceous remains with some Eriophorum. This is one of a number of sites running along the line of a possible palaeo-channel orientated in a N direction across the bog, including SMR OF010-465----, 0.46m below this site, to the N and SMR OF010-472---- to the S. 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.
