What is recorded here
The site (L 115m; Wth 2.1m; min. D 0.2m) is orientated NW - SE and consists of a compact layer of longitudinal ash and oak roundwoods (diam. 0.08-0.16m) with occasional hazel brushwood rods (diam. 0.008-0.03m). Some of the roundwoods have been split in half. Pegs, worked into wedge and chisel points, secure the outer edges of the structure. In some areas the upper surface of the timbers are charred and some hazelnuts are present. Occasional pockets of sand occur within the site.
