The National Monuments Service's description
A dispersed deposit of four pieces of heavy brushwood in the drain face (Wth 0.7m; D 0.35m). All of the pieces slope downward into the drain. There is no apparent structure and the position of the pieces seems to have been caused by machine damage. The wood is in moderate condition and is set in moderately humified Sphagnum peat with some Eriophorum and ericaceous roots.
