This site was located in the industrial peatlands of Kinnegad Bog. The site was first recorded in the 2013 Peatland Survey as a cluster of archaeological deposits exposed on the field surface and in the drain face over 14m, orientated N-S and up to 0.5m below the field surface. It was contained in raised bog peats. The cluster was recorded at three individual locations, and consisted of horizontal brushwood and roundwood occurring singly or in groups. Several stakes were also noted on the field surface. Toolmarks were present on several worked ends (Bermingham 2014). The site was dated to cal. 2618-2570 BC (UBA 26637). The site was not re-located during a pre-season field visit in April 2015. On the 25th of June 2015 (licence 15E0160), the find spot was found using GPS, but no wood remained in situ.
