The National Monuments Service's description
The site (L 1.5m; Wth 1.45m; D 0.55m) is orientated N-S and consists of a haphazard arrangement of brushwood and roundwoods (diam. 0.03-0.065m), some of which are laid horizontally but which largely consist of vertical posts and stakes inserted at angles of 75°-85°. The posts (L 0.55m max.) are roughly paired with driven points converging. Hazel and birch are present. Several chisel points were noted.
