The National Monuments Service's description
An irregular and quite sparse distribution of light brushwood and twigs (Wth 1.9m; D 0.38m). A small number of outlying pieces are recorded to the NE. The wood is in moderate condition. Woodworking is evidenced by a single piece cut to a chisel point. The site is located predominantly in moderately humified Sphagnum and Eriophorum peat. It is one of a number of sites within a 24m length of this drain face and is adjacent to SMR WM039-072---- to the SW and SMR WM039-074----, 2.7m from its NE end.
