What is known about this site comes entirely from a single aerial photograph taken on 19 July 1971, part of a Cambridge University Collection of Aerial Photography sortie that captured crop or soil marks revealing a rectilinear enclosure, with traces of what may have been a rectangular structure, possibly a house, occupying its south-eastern corner.

Aerial photography has been one of the most productive tools for identifying buried or levelled archaeological features in Ireland, particularly across the midlands and south-east where centuries of tillage have flattened earthworks that might otherwise survive elsewhere as visible banks or ditches. Crop marks form when buried features, such as filled ditches or the footings of former walls, cause the vegetation above them to grow at a slightly different rate, a difference that becomes legible only from height and at the right time of year. The 1971 photograph captures exactly this kind of fleeting legibility. The enclosure itself has not been firmly dated, and the building within it, tentatively identified as a house, remains unexcavated and unclassified beyond its rectangular outline. The combination of an enclosure and an internal structure is a pattern that could belong to almost any period from early medieval onwards.
