It occupies a curious bureaucratic limbo: recorded, named, and filed, but ultimately unverified.

The site was catalogued as a quarry in both the Sites and Monuments Record of 1988 and the Record of Monuments and Places of 1998, two successive national inventories that attempted to document the full sweep of Ireland's archaeological landscape. Being listed in either carries some weight, implying that something on the ground warranted attention. In this case, however, the evidence was judged insufficient to confirm that an actual archaeological monument exists at the location. It was recorded because something prompted a record, and then effectively suspended there, neither confirmed nor fully dismissed.
