The most substantial surviving feature is the millrace, an earth-cut channel running roughly fifty metres parallel to the northern bank of the stream. A millrace is the engineered channel that directed water away from a natural watercourse to drive a mill wheel, and here it is separated from the stream itself by an earthen bank standing around six metres high, a substantial piece of civil engineering for a rural setting.

The mill sits approximately two hundred metres south of an early ecclesiastical enclosure, a proximity that is unlikely to be coincidental. Mills were closely associated with monastic and early church settlements in medieval Ireland, providing the grinding capacity that communities of any size required. What survives on the ground is fragmentary but evocative. A local landowner recalled the presence of a large millstone on the southern bank of the stream, roughly six feet in diameter and a foot thick, with a central hole of the kind used to mount the stone on its spindle. That area has since been reclaimed and planted with trees, and the stone's current whereabouts are unclear. The earthworks of the millrace, however, remain visible, preserved partly by the scale of the bank that divides it from the stream.
