The ground is level, the surrounding field fences are gone, and the soil has been turned over repeatedly by tillage. Whatever once rose from this spot, it has left no visible surface trace. The place exists now almost entirely as a cartographic memory.

What keeps it on the record is a single representation on the 1935 Ordnance Survey six-inch map, where a small hachured mound was marked with the fine radiating lines surveyors used to indicate a rise in the ground. Those hachures are a quiet form of evidence, suggesting that within living memory of that survey the feature was still legible in the landscape. Earthen mounds of this kind can have many origins in an Irish context, ranging from natural glacial deposits to deliberately constructed prehistoric burial or ceremonial monuments, or later medieval features. Without excavation it is rarely possible to say which category applies, and in this case the question may never be answered. The removal of the field boundaries that once surrounded the area has further erased the immediate landscape context that might have offered clues.
