What is recorded here

Two pieces of light brushwood and one roundwood (Wth 0.87m; D 0.1m) which are irregularly laid and widely spaced, although two of the elements appear to be parallel. The roundwood is cut to a chisel point, has a number of toolmarks along its length and has branch-trimming. The site lies in well-humified Sphagnum peat with fibrous roots and occasional Eriophorum. SMR OF010-252----, 1.7m to the SW, is at the same level. SMR OF010-251---- is 4.5m to the SW and SMR OF010-254---- is 4.3m to the NE. 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. The original survey description was compiled by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin). Assessed and revised by: Caimin O'Brien, Paul Walsh Date of upload: 23 May 2011
