The National Monuments Service's description
An irregular deposit (L 1.2m; Wth 0.96m; D 0.07m) of brushwood (diam. 0.015-0.049m). The wood is in poor condition as a result of milling and sits in moderately humified Sphagnum and Eriophorum peat with abundant fibrous roots. The site is one of a small number of comparable sites in this area including SMR WM039-160---- and SMR WM039-162----, between which is a scatter of disturbed brushwood.
