There is almost nothing left to see. A slight irregularity in the eastern field bank is, in practical terms, the only physical trace remaining at ground level. And yet the site has a quiet stubbornness to it, persisting in local memory even as the pasture has swallowed most of the evidence.

What makes the place genuinely puzzling is how its recorded shape has shifted over time. The Ordnance Survey six-inch map of 1834 shows a small rectangular enclosure on the spot, while the 1907 edition depicts something subcircular instead. A rath, the Irish term for a roughly circular earthen ringfort of early medieval date typically used as a farmstead enclosure, would normally be expected to appear circular or oval. The rectangular form on the earlier map sits oddly against that expectation, and it is not clear whether the two editions are recording the same feature at different stages of deterioration, or something else entirely. Adding another layer, local reports mention that crosses have been found here, suggesting the site may have carried religious significance at some point, though the details of those finds remain vague. The drumlin landscape of Monaghan, shaped by glacial deposits into its characteristic rolling ridges and hollows, tends to preserve such sites unevenly, and this one has fared poorly in physical terms even as its local reputation has held.
