What is recorded here
The site (L 6.3m; Wth 1.95m; D 0.07m) has an apparent E-W orientation. It is irregularly laid, unevenly spaced and one to three pieces of brushwood (diam. 0.015-0.045m) deep. There are two pegs (diam. 0.04-0.07m), set at 60-90°, situated centrally within the site, which appear to support a number of horizontal elements. Overall, the site is very degraded and fragmentary due to machine disturbance and desiccation. It lies in moderately humified Sphagnum peat with ericaceous remains.
