The circular earthwork, once a rath of around thirty metres in diameter, has been levelled, its banks smoothed back into the pasture over which cattle now graze. A rath is a ringfort defined by an earthen bank and ditch, used in early medieval Ireland typically as an enclosed farmstead, and thousands of them once punctuated the Irish countryside. This particular one has, on the surface, been lost.

The monument was still legible on the Ordnance Survey six-inch map of 1924, recorded as a roughly circular embanked enclosure on a north-facing slope. By the time Denis Power compiled notes on the site, uploaded in August 2011, the structure had been levelled. The 1901 OS six-inch map showed a field boundary abutting the enclosure at its south-western edge, a boundary that has since been removed, further obscuring the original shape of the place. What agricultural or drainage works contributed to its disappearance is not recorded.

What remains is subtle, and rewards a careful eye rather than a casual glance. A curving field boundary still follows the line of the old enclosure from north-northeast around to the southeast, as though the landscape retained some instinct for the original form. On the opposite arc, from south-southwest to north-northwest, a very slight scarped edge, a low terrace-like drop in the ground, can still be traced. The interior of what was once the enclosed space slopes gently downward to the north. None of this is dramatic, but taken together these faint signatures in the ground outline something that cartographers mapped, farmers altered, and the soil has not entirely forgotten. Visitors approaching across the pasture should look for the gentle change in gradient and the subtle curve of the surviving field boundary rather than expecting any raised earthwork to announce itself.
