The site (L 337.47m; Wth 0.68m; D 0.16m) is orientated ENE-WSW and primarily consists of longitudinal oak planks laid end-to-end and secured in place with pegs through mortices in the ends of the timbers. At most of the W sightings, the site is below the water level and can only be identified as one, and occasionally two, longitudinal planks. At some sightings, it consists of two parallel planks (D 0.03-0.12m) or a plank with a roundwood and some brushwood. The width of the site varies (Wth 0.12-0.68m) along its length. At one central location, it is composed of a substantial longitudinal plank (Wth 0.4m; D 0.08m), with a split oak peg (L 0.36m) through a broken mortice. Two short fragments of split timber overlie the plank adjacent to the peg. This sighting is set in Sphagnum peat containing Eriophorum and some ericaceous remains. A dendrochronological date of 1509±9 BC or later (Q9291) was returned for a sample from this sighting.

The site (L 120.11m; Wth 2.35m; D 0.1m) is orientated E-W in opposing drain faces and on the field surfaces It consists of a number of radially split planks and one tangentially split plank, laid longitudinally. Two pegs set at 90° and 70° in association with a timber fragment were all that remained at one of the sightings. A piece of brushwood in association with some of the planks may constitute a third peg which has been dislodged. A small number of planks are irregularly laid and some of the elements may have had a substructural function but milling activity may have dislodged them from their original position. A number of planks have mortices, worked ends and branch-trimming but the toolmarks are degraded in most instances. A single plank is charred. The pegs were worked to chisel points by metal tools. The site is situated in poorly to moderately humified Sphagnum peat with Eriophorum and ericaceous remains. The site dendrochronologically dated to 954±9 BC or later (Q9523).

The site (L 142.23m; Wth 1.4m; D 0.35m) is orientated E-W in opposing drain faces. It consists of longitudinal planks on a transverse plank substructure, secured by squared pegs in mortices in some planks. Mortices are cut into both the super and substructural elements. Both radially and transversely split timbers were noted. All of the pegs have toolmarks and on occasion two pegs are used in a mortice. The most substantial sighting consists of three longitudinal planks on a single transverse plank. One longitudinal plank and the substructural planks are secured by pegs in mortices. The smaller exposures consist of single longitudinal planks with mortices and pegs, only some of which have transverse substructural planks. At one of the exposures is a substructural layer consisting of brushwood and wood chips. The site is poorly preserved with toolmarks surviving in a very degraded state and has suffered extensive machine damage. The site is situated in poorly to well-humified Sphagnum peat with Eriophorum and ericaceous remains. The site was dendrochronologically dated to 949±9 BC or later (Q9524).

The elements are closely set and longitudinally laid. The edges of the site appear to be bounded by the roundwoods. Only one degraded metal toolmark is evident. At the two most S sightings it is of less substantial construction. Here it consists of isolated roundwoods and brushwood. Machine damage is evident at these sightings however and it is likely that some of the original material has been dislodged. The site is situated in poorly humified Sphagnum peat Menyanthes seeds.
