Structure

A roundwood, two pieces of light brushwood and seven possible stave fragments in the drain face (Wth 0.84m; D 0.27m). The roundwood and the pieces of brushwood are unevenly spaced and irregularly laid. The stave fragments overlie these and are closely packed together, one/two pieces deep. Woodworking with a metal tool is clearly evident. The site is in well-humified Sphagnum peat with Eriophorum. SMR OF010-430----, SMR OF010-431---- and SMR OF010-435---- are within 1m of the site. SMR OF010-429---- lies to the N at a comparable level. 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.
