• OF015-154 Structure - peatland
  Description

  An extensive, discontinuous bed of mixed brushwood, twigs and occasional roundwoods in opposing drain faces (Wth 5.34m; D 0.3m). At least four clusters of wood can be discerned as well as numerous outlying pieces of worked wood. Towards the SE end of the spread, the level of the wood is lower and a number of sites may be present. Throughout the band, however, the brushwood is largely orientated NW-SE and is typically 2-3 pieces deep. A small number of roundwoods lie at right angles to these but a distinct structural composition cannot be distinguished. In places, the twigs appear to lie in beds around the heavier brushwood. Towards the centre of the spread but some 0.1m below the general level of the site, a concentration of light brushwood with a lesser twig component is noted and again, may constitute a separate site. In the opposing drain face, the quantity of wood appears to be much less significant. Numerous pieces have been cut to chisel points. A concentration of twigs towards the centre of the site consists predominantly of birch twigs with single specimens of hazel and willow identified. Amongst the brushwood, wood species include birch, oak, willow, alder, ash and Pomoideae. The site lies in well-humified Sphagnum peat with wood fragments. This is the most S site in a series of seven sites along a 34m long stretch in this drain face which includes SMR OF015-152---- to the NW. In the adjacent drain to the NE, a complex of sites, including SMR OF015-141----, SMR OF015-166---- and SMR OF015-167----, is noted and it is possible that these features are associated.

  This site (Wth 3.15m; D 0.3m) is orientated N-S and consists of a brushwood hurdle formed of four panels in opposing drain faces. Four sails (diam. 0.05-0.06m) are recorded, these seem to occur singly but the site is too fragmentary to determine the nature of the weave. The rods (diam. 0.01-0.04m) have some twigs also recorded between them. Toolmarks are noted on a number of pieces. The elements are constructed predominantly from alder, with hazel, oak, birch and willow also identified. The site lies in well-humified Sphagnum peat with Eriophorum, Phragmites and occasional Menyanthes seeds. It is situated c. 0.06m below SMR OF015-132----, c. 0.35m above SMR OF015-162---- and c. 2.2m NW of SMR OF015-164----. Compiled by: Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College Dublin).

• OF015-167 Structure - peatland
  Description

  An intricate band (Wth 5.86m; D 0.52m) of predominantly light brushwood, twigs and occasional roundwoods in the drain face. The distribution of wood is irregular and discontinuous. The wood varies in its level in the peat and it is possible that multiple features are represented in this area. At the NW end of the site, the deposit consists of an irregularly laid layer of mixed brushwood and twigs up to eight pieces deep. A number of upright elements may represent pegs. The centre of the site is comparable in form but slightly less compact and has less brushwood. The SE end of the site again contains heavier components up to eight brushwood pieces deep and a number of light roundwoods are recorded. A single upright element is also noted in this area. The site appears to taper towards its SE edge. A small number of pieces show evidence for woodworking with a metal tool. Throughout the site, the most predominant wood species identified was birch, with alder, willow, ash, hazel, oak and Pomoideae also recorded. The site is situated in moderately humified, woody Sphagnum peat with Phragmites. It lies 5m NW of SMR OF015-166---- and 0.25m above SMR OF015-141---- and is one of seven sites in close proximity in a 19m long stretch of this drain face. The site lies 0.33m below, and therefore predates (92E148:5) a leather shoe of Later Medieval type. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 1996.

• OF015-168 Structure - peatland
  Description

  A substantial band (Wth 3.95m; D 0.63m) of roundwoods and mixed brushwood near the bottom of the drain face and in the drain base. The NW end of the site seems to incorporate two layers. The substructure is composed chiefly of brushwood (Wth 0.92m; D 0.27m min.), 3-4 pieces deep, with no distinct structure apparent. It may have been used to provide partial support for the overlying structure, if both are contemporary. The overlying superstructure (Wth 2.53m; D 0.21m) consists principally of a layer of light and heavy roundwoods with brushwood up to 5-6 pieces deep. A number of split timbers are also recorded within this layer. To the SE, the wood appears to be more irregularly deposited and is comprised of a mixture of roundwoods, brushwood and twigs (L 3.1m; D 0.63m), up to twenty pieces deep. A vertical peg is recorded in this area. The quantity of brushwood diminishes towards the SE where the site appears to dip. Various pieces show evidence for woodworking with a metal tool and include a number of split timbers. Wood species are dominated by birch, with willow, oak, hazel, ash, Pomoideae and alder also recorded. The site sits in well-humified Sphagnum peat. A timber from the upper part of the NW end of the site was dendrochronologically dated to AD 619±9 or later (Q9288). This date is significantly older than a radiocarbon determination from the lower level of SMR OF015-169----, 1.6m to the SE, which occurs at a comparable depth in the peat. The discrepancy in dates may indicate that both sites include multiple features constructed over a considerable period of time. It is one of seven sites in close proximity in a 19m long stretch of this drain face, including SMR OF015-165---- 3.6m to the NW. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 1996. The evidence is not sufficient to warrant its acceptance as the remains of an archaeological monument.

• OF015-169 Structure - peatland
  Description

  This site is formed of a deep distribution (Wth 2.8m min.; D 0.85m min.) of roundwoods, brushwood and twigs, orientated NW-SE, in the lower levels and base of the drain. The NW end of the distribution consists mainly of light brushwood. Towards the SE, however, the elements tend to be larger and include roundwoods (diam. 0.065-0.11m). In this area, there are small concentrations of twigs and the wood is generally densely packed. Throughout the deposit, all elements tend to be irregularly laid with no discernible structural cohesion. Given the depth of the deposit, the site may incorporates multiple features. A number of artefacts have been recovered from the SE end of this site. These include two pieces of a perforated, alder shaft (92E148:09a-c), an alder barrel lid (92E148:11), an ash vessel base (92E148:12) and a number of ash stave fragments (92E148:313a-e). Evidence for woodworking within the site is limited to a single metal-cut wedge point and a split timber. Wood species include birch, alder, ash, willow and oak. It sits in well-humified Sphagnum peat. The site has been radiocarbon dated to 196 BC-AD124 (Beta-118041). The site is the most S of seven sites in close proximity in a 19m long stretch of this drain face, including SMR OF015-168---- c. 1.6m to the NW which occurs at the same level and is comparable in form. This site has produced a dendrochronological date which is significantly younger and may suggest that multiple features are contained within both sites. The sites are conceivably associated although the wood appears discontinuous in the drain face. Recorded by the Irish Archaeological Wetland Unit (University College, Dublin) in 1996. The evidence is not sufficient to warrant its acceptance as the remains of an archaeological monument.
