Comments
 
EH Birstall Watermead Country Park: burnt mound sequence Birstall Watermead Country Park- Wood; one of several alder planks lining the base of a circular cut (the trough); these could be a later addition to the trough (charcoal was found behind the planks), but (unlike oak) they could not have remained in use for long.
