The National Monuments Service's description
Three parallel roundwoods (overall L 1.4m; Wth 0.7-0.75m) located on the field surface, immediately WNW of a drain, were being milled. Two of the roundwoods (diams. 0.1m) were laid side-by-side and one of them showed evidence of woodworking. The third example (diam. 0.14m), in contrast, was larger and was not horizontal as it rose to the E. (Dunne 1999, 38, 99DBSE0004A)
