What is recorded here
The site (Wth 1.1m; D 0.07m) consists of densely packed light brushwood and twigs (0.005-0.04m), orientated approximately N-S and are in poor to moderate condition. The overall orientation of the site is indiscernible. The deposit is concave in form and the majority of the elements are in poorly humified Sphagnum peat with Eriophorum and some ericaceous remains. This is one of a number of sites running along the line of a possible palaeo-channel orientated in a N direction across the bog, including SMR OF010-470---- to the S and SMR OF010-461----, which is 0.4m below SMR OF010-462----.
