What is recorded here
Six light roundwoods (L 2.86m min.; Wth 1.18m; D 0.05m min.) arranged in two groups of three at each end of the exposure and have a general NE-SW orientation. Some of the roundwoods are oblique to the main axis of the site. Two metal-cut chisel points are evident. The wood is in good condition where not machine damaged and is set in moderately humified Sphagnum peat with some Eriophorum. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 2001. The evidence is not sufficient to warrant its acceptance as the remains of an archaeological monument.
