Situated on flat bogland. This site consisted of a trackway (L 24.2m; Wth 3-10.8m) with a deep layer of roundwood and brushwood supporting five irregularly placed deposits of roundwood. A brushwood point of yew was uncovered during the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (UCD) survey and a wooden shaft was discovered during excavation. (Murray 1999, Derryfadda 13, 32-4)
