What is recorded here

The site (L 4.5m min.; Wth 2.1m; D 0.1m) appears to be orientated NNE-SSW and consists of extensively milled brushwood, one roundwood, twigs and pegs on the field surface. Most of the central portion of the site has been removed by milling with a band of brushwood surviving along each side. The roundwood (diam. 0.085m) and most of the brushwood (diam. 0.011-0.045m) are longitudinally laid. A small amount of twigs are present throughout the site and at least six pegs are evident along the W and E sides. A single worked end cut to a wedge point is evident. Where not machine damaged the wood is in moderate condition and set in well-humified Sphagnum peat with some Eriophorum. Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College Dublin).
