Located towards the W edge of Cloonshannagh bog, c. 28m SE of togher (RO024-023----) and just N of platform (RO024-050----), although it is c. 0.6m deeper than the latter. This platform (Wth 5.46m; T 0.45m) was exposed in the drain face, 0.50m below the field surface. It was orientated NE-SW and was composed of moderately well preserved longitudinally laid roundwood and brushwood underlain by a small number of transversely laid roudwood elements. This sighting was less structured than the overlying (RO024-049----) with the elements laid 0.03 to 0.28m apart. The roundwood and brushwood ranged from 0.065 to 0.19m and from 0.03 to 0.05m in diameter, respectively. The underlying peat was composed of moderately humified Sphagnum-rich peat with frequent Eriophorum and Calluna inclusions.
