In Derryvella bog. This togher was visible on the field surface immediately to the SW of (TS048-062----). It was composed of longitudinally laid brushwood elements interspersed with brushwood. The wood was densely laid but fragmentary, and the longitudinals had an E–W orientation. The togher was poorly preserved. The elements measured 0.05 to 0.6m in length and 0.02 to 0.04m in diameter. There was no trace of this togher to the E or W of this sighting. The peat was composed of poorly humified sphagnum peat with frequent eriophorum inclusions. A single piece of wood was identified as willow. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly, based on the original survey description compiled by Jane Whitaker of Archaeological Development Services Ltd.
