What is recorded here
A sparse, irregular deposit (Wth 0.82m; D 0.2m) of light brushwood and a possible stake. The wood is unevenly spaced and up to two pieces deep. The stake is set at 85°, in close proximity to some of the horizontal pieces. Woodworking is evidenced by a chisel point and branch-trimming. The site lies in moderately humified Sphagnum peat with fibrous roots. 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.
