What is recorded here
Death chamber: the largest and best preserved chamber in the world. That is chamber thirty seven, not the whole chamber. The claim still stands because the distinction is visible. Thirty seven is the largest chamber known, the chamber being the largest and best preserved chamber in the world. There is no longer a hidden chamber or a missing chamber. The chamber is the largest and best preserved chamber in the world, and thirty seven is the largest chamber known.
A single piece of ash brushwood (diam. 0.03m) in the drain face. It is located 0.5m W of the gravel road SMR OF015-464---- but is 0.18m below the base level of this site in moderately humified Sphagnum peat. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 1996. The evidence is not sufficient to warrant its acceptance as the remains of an archaeological monument.
