No inscribed headstones, no enclosing wall, no chapel ruin; just a low arc of stony scarp curving from south-west to north-west, reaching barely a metre in height, and two whitethorn trees standing some eighteen metres to the east. The ground holds its dead quietly, with no surface evidence of burials visible today.

The place is known locally as a paupers' graveyard, or simply a cill, the Irish word for a small early ecclesiastical enclosure or burial ground, often associated with pre-parish communities or those excluded from consecrated ground. Neither the 1842 nor the 1905 Ordnance Survey six-inch maps record the site, which already suggests it occupied an uncertain, unofficial status in living memory. By the time Bowman wrote about it in 1934, it was described as practically levelled, the field known as the Keel field, with a diameter of roughly twenty-five yards and a single whitethorn at its centre. Around fifteen rough headstones were noted then, ranging from six to fourteen inches in height, uncut and irregular, the kind of marker that names no one. Running approximately sixteen metres to the north, there was an old famine road, one of the relief-work routes constructed during the Great Famine of the 1840s to give the starving a wage in exchange for labour, often leading nowhere in particular. The proximity of such a road to a paupers' burial ground is not coincidental.

The site sits in ordinary farmland and offers little to see without knowing what to look for. The low scarp and the two whitethorn trees to the east are the clearest indicators of where the ground is. Whitethorn, or hawthorn, has a long association in Ireland with liminal and sacred spaces, and its presence here, as at many such informal graveyards, is less ornamental than memorial.
