That ditch runs east to west across the monument, and it is perhaps the most telling detail about how this kind of site tends to fare once the land around it gets put to agricultural use. The enclosure at Ballyloundash is not dramatic from the ground, but it has the particular quality of things that endure despite, rather than because of, human attention.

When the archaeologist O'Kelly recorded the site in 1942 and 1943, he described a circular platform structure rising roughly 0.9 metres above the surrounding field level, enclosed by a fosse and an outer bank. A fosse, in this context, is simply a ditch dug to define and defend a boundary, often with the excavated earth thrown outward to form a bank. The whole monument measured around 50 metres in overall diameter. What makes the setting notable is its location: marshy lowland is not the obvious place to build an elevated circular platform, and yet such sites do appear in wet ground across Ireland, sometimes interpreted as enclosures for settlement, sometimes for ritual or agricultural purposes. The record does not specify a date or function for Ballyloundash, and no further excavation appears to have followed O'Kelly's description.

Today, the enclosure is most clearly visible not from the ground at all but on aerial photography. A faint outline of the earthwork can be traced on Digital Globe satellite imagery, the post-1700 drainage ditch cutting across it still readable in the cropmarks and surface variation. Visiting the area on foot, in marshy ground, the monument is likely to be subtle rather than obvious, the kind of thing that rewards patience and prior study of the aerial image. The site is in private agricultural land, so any visit would require permission from the landowner. Autumn or winter, when vegetation is lower and the ground's drainage patterns become more legible, would give the best chance of reading the surviving earthwork in context.
