What is recorded here
The site (Wth 1.5m; D 0.25m) consists of a dispersed and irregular layer of light brushwood and occasional twigs in opposing drain faces. It is not possible to identify the orientation of the site and there is no evidence for woodworking. Wood species include willow, birch, alder, oak and hazel. The wood lies in well-humified Sphagnum peat containing occasional Eriophorum.
