The National Monuments Service's description
The site (L 35.06m; Wth 1.05m; D 0.07m) is orientated NW-SE and consists of brushwood (diam. 0.015-0.045m) laid one piece deep. The pieces tend to lie in a regular, longitudinal position. A nearby collection of irregularly deposited brushwood on the field surface to the SE may be related to this site. Evidence for woodworking is confined to this area. The site is located in poorly humified Sphagnum peat.
