What is recorded here
An irregular, dispersed deposit (Wth 1.2m; D 0.34m) of two pieces of brushwood and two roundwoods in two distinct peat layers. Toolmarks and branchtrimming made using a metal tool are evident. This is one of a number of sites running along the line of a possible palaeo-channel orientated in a N direction across the bog, including MR OF010-472---- to the N and SMR OF010-463----, 4.55m to the SE, which is 0.42m above SMR OF010-471----. 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.
