The enclosure itself has left no visible trace above ground, no wall, no bank, nothing a passing driver or pedestrian would notice. What points to its former existence instead are two indirect clues: the curve of Danesfort Road to the west of the old church, and a townland boundary that arcs around to the southeast. Together, these suggest a roughly circular area about 200 metres in diameter, its outline now preserved only in the accidental geometry of roads and administrative lines drawn on maps.

Within this ghost boundary, three features cluster in a way that is entirely consistent with early Irish ecclesiastical sites. There is a church dedicated to St Bridget, one of Ireland's most widely venerated saints, alongside a graveyard and a holy well. Holy wells, typically small spring-fed pools associated with a local saint and visited for healing or blessing, are found across Ireland in their hundreds, but their presence alongside a church and burial ground within a possible enclosure strengthens the case that this was once a more formally organised sacred precinct. The curved road and townland boundary as indicators of a vanished enclosure is a method developed by landscape archaeologist Liam Swan, whose 1983 study identified this site among others in the region. The marshy ground to the south of the church may itself help explain why so little survives at the surface; wet, low-lying land tends to obscure and absorb the earthworks that elsewhere remain legible for centuries.
