Most of it is gone, absorbed long ago into the surrounding fields, but a partial fosse, the defensive ditch that once ringed the entire site, still traces an arc through the landscape. It is waterlogged on the southern curve, roughly four metres wide and less than a metre deep, and farm trackways have settled into alignment with its interior and exterior edges as though the old boundaries still exert some gravitational pull on the daily life of the place.

By around 1840, the Ordnance Survey letters, later published by O'Flanagan, recorded the fort as being fifty-four paces in diameter, and noted with some resignation that its ramparts would soon be carted off to fertilise the surrounding fields. This was not mere prediction. A later account by White in 1892 confirmed that the two water-filled dykes that had formed the enclosure's defences were indeed dismantled, and that in the process a substantial quantity of manure was recovered, along with something more intriguing: an old boat, found within one of the dykes. What kind of vessel it was, how it came to be there, or what happened to it afterwards, the record does not say. Within the south-west sector of the enclosure, just outside the modern farmyard buildings, there are ivy-covered remains thought to be those of a castle, suggesting the site had a long afterlife into the medieval period. Excavations north of the castle and enclosure, reported by Moran in 1995, produced no firm evidence of medieval settlement, though the excavators allowed that ploughing may have removed whatever traces once existed. A ringfort lies roughly three hundred metres to the south-west, hinting that this was once a more densely occupied corner of the county than the present farmyard suggests.
