What is recorded here
This site (L 235m; Wth 1.29m; D 0.09m) is orientated E-W and appears to extend from Leitra bog island to a gravel knoll in the bog. It was recorded over several fields but in some it has been destroyed. It varies in construction along its length. At one sighting it consists of a possible hurdle panel of hazel brushwood (diam. 0.01.5-0.032m) and at another location it is composed of longitudinal birch roundwoods.
