Almost, but not quite: the 1842 Ordnance Survey six-inch map still records the ghost of a large dotted circle, roughly 110 metres in diameter, labelled simply "Grave Yd", with a rectangular dotted structure marked "site of church" sitting in its south-eastern quadrant. Today there is no visible trace at ground level, but the scale of that circle is telling. Ecclesiastical enclosures of this size, in which a circular boundary bank or wall defined the sacred precinct of a monastery, are a characteristic feature of early medieval Irish Christianity, and a diameter approaching 110 metres places this firmly in the category of significant early foundations.

The place-name offers the clearest surviving thread. Writing in 1923, Patrick Power recorded the site as Cill Rossaín, meaning the church of a figure named Russan, and noted that "the large circular surrounding fence was thrown down within the last half century", meaning it was still a physical presence in the landscape within living memory of his informants. By the time Power was writing, the enclosure had gone; before that, it had apparently stood long enough to be remembered. The church itself appears in a 1615 diocesan account, cited by Brady, as one of two churches "in good repair" within Killaspugmullane parish, suggesting the site retained some active religious function well into the post-Reformation period, even as the broader monastic world it may once have belonged to had long since dissolved. The parish name, Killaspugmullane, preserves the memory of a bishop, adding another layer of early ecclesiastical significance to this small corner of east Cork.

There is nothing to see on the ground today, and the field gives no indication of what the map and the place-name between them suggest. The interest here is less in visiting than in the particular quality of erasure: a monastery, possibly, then a functioning church, then a graveyard, then a dotted circle on a nineteenth-century map, and now pasture.
