Roughly rectangular, measuring around 48 metres east to west and 37.5 metres north to south, it sits in level rough grazing and appears, to most eyes, as nothing more than a slightly uneven patch of long grass with a few reeds creeping in near one edge. What makes it worth a second look is that it was once raised and clearly defined, prominent enough to be mapped three times across nearly a century of Ordnance Survey work.

The six-inch OS maps of 1842, 1905, and 1936 each record the site as a hachured rectangular raised area, meaning that cartographers of those different eras all considered it significant enough to mark with the small radiating lines used to indicate a mound or earthwork. Since then, the monument has been largely levelled. What survives is subtle: a slight scarp along the northern side, and along the eastern edge a bank that has been flattened to the point where it shows up not as a physical ridge but as a differential growth pattern in the vegetation, a faint stripe roughly five metres wide with a low internal lip barely twenty centimetres high. The southern boundary follows the existing townland and field boundary, which incorporates a drainage ditch. To the west, a depression that might once have completed the enclosure's outline is now complicated by the presence of a septic tank just outside the north-western corner. Enclosures of this kind, broadly defined as enclosed areas bounded by earthen banks or ditches, are common features across the Irish countryside and can date from the prehistoric period through to the early medieval, serving purposes ranging from settlement and stock management to ritual use, though nothing in what survives here pins this example to a particular function or date.
