What is recorded here

An irregular, dispersed deposit (Wth 1.2m; D 0.45m) of seven pieces of brushwood and four roundwoods. Toolmarks, produced with a metal tool, are present on some elements. This material is dispersed within a number of peat strata. 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 OF010-462----to the N. 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
