It is easy to miss, not because it has been buried or built over, but because its defining features, a low earthen bank and a shallow surrounding fosse, have been worn by centuries to something barely above the level of the field itself. The bank rises only 35 centimetres above the interior ground surface and a little less on the outside. The fosse, a defensive or boundary ditch encircling the northern arc, is no more than 30 centimetres deep and about two and a half metres wide. What survives is the memory of an enclosure rather than its full physical presence.

The site measures roughly 40 metres from north to south and 24 metres from east to west, sitting on a gentle east-facing slope whose interior continues to drop gradually toward the east. Earthen enclosures of this kind are relatively common across the Irish landscape and are often associated with early medieval settlement, though the precise function of any individual example is rarely straightforward to determine. They could have served as farmsteads, stock enclosures, or defined the territory around a dwelling of some status. The bank runs from the northwest around to the southwest, while from the southwest to the northeast the boundary becomes even less pronounced, surviving only as a very slight linear depression in the ground. A field boundary follows the external base of the bank along its northern edge, suggesting that later agricultural divisions were laid out with some awareness of what was already there. The record was compiled by Denis Power and uploaded in August 2011.

The enclosure sits within working pasture, so access depends on land ownership and the cooperation of the landowner. There is nothing fenced or signposted to mark it out from the surrounding field. Visiting in lower light, particularly on a morning when the sun is still at a low angle from the east, can help pick out the slight changes in relief that define the bank and depression. A careful walk around the northern arc, where the fosse is best preserved, gives the clearest sense of the original circuit. The southern and northeastern sections require more patience, since the boundary there has faded to little more than a change in how the grass catches the light.
