It appears on Ordnance Survey six-inch maps from both 1837 and 1914, faithfully recorded across nearly eight decades of surveying, yet today it leaves no visible trace at ground level. The land has been improved, drained, and levelled to the point where nothing of the bank remains to catch the eye or cast a shadow.

An embanked enclosure of this kind, a roughly circular area defined by an earthen bank rather than a wall or ditch, is a form found widely across Ireland and associated most commonly with early medieval settlement and farming, though some examples are considerably older. The fact that this one sat towards the bottom of a gentle north-east-facing slope is a detail worth noting; such positions can reflect practical concerns about drainage and shelter, or simply the availability of workable ground. Its diameter places it within a range typical of small farmstead enclosures, the kind that would once have contained a family's dwelling and outbuildings. That it was still legible to OS surveyors in 1914 suggests it survived in some form into the early twentieth century before agricultural reclamation finally erased what remained above ground.
