There is nothing to see. No stone, no mound, no marker of any kind survives above the surface, yet the place was known and used within living memory, with burials recorded as recently as the early 1980s.

The site belongs to a category of burial place long embedded in Irish rural life: the cillín, or children's burial ground, sometimes referred to simply as a CBG. These were informal consecrated or unconsecrated plots, typically set apart from churchyards, where unbaptised infants and others excluded from Catholic burial rites were interred quietly by their families. The practice carried profound social and theological weight for generations of Irish communities. At Moylough Beg, the burials took place within or alongside a pre-existing enclosure, a feature which follows a common pattern across Ireland, where ancient earthworks or ringfort boundaries were chosen as liminal, set-apart spaces suited to this kind of burial. According to a 1983 account by Claffey, the ground was known locally and actively used, meaning it persisted well into the twentieth century rather than fading quietly into disuse after Catholic doctrine began to soften on the question of limbo.

Because no surface trace survives, there is little for a visitor to see even with precise coordinates in hand. The significance of the place lies almost entirely beneath the soil and in local memory, in the knowledge that families came here quietly, perhaps at night, to bury infants in ground that was both apart from and connected to the older landscape around it.
