No headstone, no mound, no trace of any kind breaks the surface. The ground simply sits at the junction of roads, giving no indication that it holds the dead.

Crossroads burials have a particular place in Irish tradition. Those who could not be interred in consecrated ground, including unbaptised infants and, in some periods, suicides, were sometimes buried at crossroads, places considered liminal and outside the ordered parish landscape. Whether this site at Lehenagh follows that pattern is not recorded, but its location at a junction is consistent with that practice. The site is noted in the Archaeological Inventory of County Cork, which catalogues it with unusual brevity: a location, and the observation that nothing is visible above ground.
