What is recorded here
The site (L 1.18m min.; Wth 1.4m min.; D 0.1m min.) consists of a dense deposit of light brushwood and roundwoods with twigs throughout. The majority of the elements are orientated E-W but the overall site orientation is indiscernible. The site has suffered severe machine damage and the condition of the wood is extremely poor. A number of elements identified as stakes may represent displacement due to milling. Two toolmarks are evident in associated ex situ material. The site lies in moderately humified Sphagnum peat with ericaceous remains. SMR OF010-399---- lies 3.94m to the SE.
