The National Monuments Service's description
A small patch (exposed L 1.3m, Wth 0.4m) of brushwood and twigs (diam. c. 0.01-0.04m) was located on the field surface was being milled. There was no visible evidence of woodworking. The evidence suggested that this was likely to be the remains of a platform. (Dunne 1999, 5, 99LBW0009A)
