Structure

Nine pieces of brushwood on the field surface and two pieces in the opposing drain face (L 7.56m; Wth 0.89m; D 0.07m). The wood (diam. 0.02-0.04m) is orientated in a N-S direction. A larger natural branch overlies the site on the field surface. A single degraded chisel point is evident on one piece in the drain face. The wood is in moderate condition and set in poorly humified Sphagnum peat with some Eriophorum and ericaceous remains. 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
