The National Monuments Service's description
Excavated in advance of development (Licence no. 06E0477), a thin deposit of burnt mound material was removed onto a large pit, irregular in plan. The lower fills were waterlogged. Some flint and animal bone were recovered. A number of pits were associated (Corcoran 2009, 41).
