The National Monuments Service's description
The site (L 9.05m; Wth 1.76m; D 0.17m) is orientated NW-SE and consists of a central, band (Wth 0.67m) of interwoven brushwood, up to two rods deep. All the material is orientated N-S or NE-SW. A similar, more scattered spread is located 0.35m to the NW and a few dispersed fragments are located immediately to the SE. Woodworking is evident on some elements. Wood species include alder and hazel. This site is located in an area of abundant field surface material whose relationships are difficult to discern. The site may be related to SMR OF015-354----.
