The National Monuments Service's description
The site (Wth 0.56m; D 0.095m) is orientated NNE-SSW and composed of six longitudinally laid, closely spaced brushwood (diam. 0.025-0.05m). The drain intersects the site at a very oblique angle which may have reduced both the recorded composition and width of the structure. The wood is in good condition and is set in poorly humified Sphagnum peat. This site is 0.15m above SMR WM039-191---- and SMR WM039-217---- and is one of nine closely situated sites along a 5m length of this drain including SMR WM039-193---- 0.7m to the NE and SMR WM039-216---- 1.25m to the SW.
