The National Monuments Service's description
The site (L 1.07m min.; Wth 1.84m min.; D 0.07m) consists of an extensive deposit of light brushwood and occasional twigs on the field surface The elements are densely laid with the majority orientated N-S. The overall orientation of the site is indiscernible. Although many of the elements are broken, the wood is generally in good condition. It lies in moderately humified Sphagnum peat with Eriophorum and ericaceous remains.
