It measures roughly 4.5 metres from north to south and 3.7 metres from east to west, its edges defined by a scarp, a slight step down in the ground surface, just a metre wide and barely a tenth of a metre high. Encircling it is an equally modest fosse, the term for a shallow ditch that typically accompanied earthworks of the early medieval and prehistoric periods, this one sharing the same unassuming dimensions. Taken together, the scarp and fosse mark this out as a deliberate construction rather than a natural quirk of the land, though its original purpose remains unclear from what survives on the surface.

The mound sits approximately 20 metres south of a separate recorded monument, suggesting this corner of Roxborough was not empty ground in earlier centuries. Small enclosed mounds of this kind appear across the Irish landscape in a variety of guises: they may relate to burial activity, to boundary marking, or to uses that have left no clear trace above ground. Without excavation, the record offers dimensions and form but stops short of interpretation. What the notes do confirm is the physical reality of the feature, carefully measured and recorded as part of the national monuments survey, which means it has been examined closely enough to distinguish it from natural variation in the terrain.

The site sits within working farmland, so access would require landowner permission, and there is no public infrastructure pointing a visitor towards it. The feature itself offers little visual drama; its interest lies precisely in its discretion. Anyone with a keen eye for slight changes in ground level and a copy of the relevant Ordnance Survey sheet might locate it, though the experience is less about what can be seen and more about the knowledge that something was placed here, at a specific scale and with a specific boundary, by someone whose intentions the landscape has long since absorbed.
