The National Monuments Service's description
The site (Wth 0.88m; D 0.14m) has an apparent NE-SW orientation and consists of eleven pieces of longitudinally laid mixed brushwood and occasional twigs, 0.05-0.12m apart. The wood is in very poor condition and there is no evidence of woodworking. It lies in moderately to well-humified Sphagnum peat with frequent unidentified seeds, occasional woody roots and fibrous roots.
