The National Monuments Service's description
The site (L 1.1m min.; Wth 1.4m; D 0.05m) consists of pieces of light brushwood set at right angles to and partially interwoven around two pieces of heavy brushwood. The latter are set 0.27m apart, parallel to one another and orientated NE-SW. The structure is well formed but the wood is in very poor condition and very fragmentary. No woodworking was noted, possibly due to the poor condition of the wood. This structure is located in poorly humified Sphagnum with some ericaceous remains.
