The National Monuments Service's description
A small collection of dispersed brushwood and roundwoods (L 1.7m min.; Wth 0.95m; D 0.3m). The brushwood (diam. 0.015-0.06m) and the roundwoods (diam. 0.07m max.) are irregularly deposited up to four pieces deep although a number are orientated approximately E-W. Woodworking is attested by two pieces with chisel points. The wood is in poor condition and sits in a poorly humified Sphagnum peat containing ericaceous remains and Eriophorum.
