The National Monuments Service's description

A hurdle panel (L 1.1m min.; Wth 1.3m; D 0.04m) on the surface of a private bog adjacent to the Bord na Móna bog. The hurdle consists of forty rods and two sails. The site is in very poor condition due to machine activity and desiccation. There are two displaced roundwoods in close proximity to the rods which are unlikely to be associated with the hurdle.
