It exists, in practical terms, only as a photograph, a single aerial image captured in 1972 that revealed what centuries of soil and cultivation had quietly buried from view.

The site sits on a ridge to the south-east of the Delvin river, beneath what was, at the time of that photograph, a crop of corn. Cropmarks, the faint but readable differences in how vegetation grows above buried features, betrayed the outline of an enclosure roughly 40 metres in diameter. Enclosures of this kind are among the most common archaeological features found across Ireland, typically forming the circular or oval boundaries of early medieval farmsteads, though they can date to a much wider range of periods. What made this particular photograph, catalogued as FSI4.536/7, additionally useful was the suggestion of possible field systems radiating outward from the northern quadrant, hinting that the enclosure did not stand alone but was part of a wider organised landscape. The record was compiled by archaeologist Geraldine Stout and later updated by Christine Baker.

There is nothing to see at ground level. The ridge near the Delvin river looks like ordinary agricultural land, and without access to the aerial record there is no visible trace of what lies beneath. For anyone interested in aerial archaeology or the way that Irish farmland conceals layer upon layer of earlier settlement, the 1972 photograph itself is the real point of interest, demonstrating how much of the country's early landscape remains legible only from above, and only under the right conditions of light, season, and crop growth.
