What is recorded here

The site (Wth 2.3m; D 0.24m) with an apparent E-W orientation consists of two layers of brushwood and roundwoods. The substructure (Wth 2.3m) is composed of dispersed, mainly transverse, brushwood (diam. 0.012-0.056m), roundwoods (diam. 0.061-0.074m) and a small number of pegs. The superstructure (Wth 1.6m) consists of closely-set, longitudinal brushwood (diam. 0.025-0.058m) and roundwoods (diam. 0.07-0.073m). On the S side of the section, the site is up to three elements deep and is less dense on the N side. The wood is in moderate condition and set in well-humified Sphagnum peat with occasional Eriophorum and ericaceous remains. This site and SMR OF010-445----, 4.5m to the W, may have formed part of a larger structure. Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College Dublin). Date of upload: 23 May 2011
