An irregular, dispersed site (L 16.62m; Wth 0.78m; D 0.05m) orientated N-S which is formed of transversely laid pieces of brushwood. At one location it consists of three partially milled pieces of brushwood (diam. 0.035-0.05m) orientated approximately NE-SW. A metal-cut chisel point was present on one of the elements. The wood was identified as alder, birch and willow. The site sits in well-humified Sphagnum peat with ericaceous root and some Eriophorum.
