What makes it quietly arresting is not its scale but its completeness: the drystone enclosing wall still holds its shape, the graves inside are arranged in orderly north-south rows, and the whole site measures just 41 metres by 18.5 metres, compact enough that everything within it remains legible at a glance. The headstones at the western ends of the graves are small and carry no inscriptions, which is not unusual in older rural burial grounds where the carving of names and dates was a later, more expensive habit.

The more puzzling feature lies in the south-eastern corner of the interior, where the foundations of a small square building, roughly four metres on each side, survive within their own separate oval enclosure about eleven metres across. Both the building and its enclosure are defined by collapsed drystone walling, with a gap on the western side of the building suggesting an original entrance. A small enclosure within an enclosure of this kind is a recognisable pattern at early Irish ecclesiastical sites, where a founder's grave or a small oratory was sometimes set apart from the main burial ground by its own boundary wall. Nothing in the surviving fabric names a patron or a date, but the arrangement points toward an origin older than the uninscribed headstones around it, and suggests that the hillock was chosen deliberately, elevated just enough above the surrounding bog to give the site a visible presence in the landscape.
