The National Monuments Service's description
A compact brushwood structure (L 1m; Wth 0.78m; D 0.13m), evident in opposing drain faces. The structure is formed of compactly laid light brushwood, up to 4 pieces deep. The ditching machine in part caused the apparent disarrangement of the brushwood. Wood species are dominated by hazel with a small amount of Pyrus/Malus also recorded. The site is located in moderately humified Sphagnum with frequent Menyanthes seeds, ericaceous root and occasional pieces of Eriophorum.
