Fragmentary remains of a brushwood togher (overall L 15.3m; original Wth 1.2m) were located on the field surface, in the centre of two adjacent fields, largely milled out. 20A: exposed area (1m x 0.7m) E of a drain. Longitudinal brushwood (diam. 0.015-0.03m), orientated E-W to WNW-ESE. 20B: W of drain. Longitudinal brushwood (diam. 0.01-0.05m) with larger pieces (0.045-0.05m) forming the sides of the togher (original Wth 1.2m; overall Wth 1.3m) oriented E-W to WNW-ESE. The presence of old bamboo in the drain indicated that this monument was included in the original Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (UCD) survey.
