No mound, no stone, no depression in the grass marks the spot; whatever lies beneath has left nothing legible on the surface. The field carries a name, though, and names in Irish landscapes have a way of preserving what the ground no longer shows: it is called "Tadg na Reilige", which translates roughly as Tadhg's burial ground or graveyard.

The tradition of a cill here, an early ecclesiastical enclosure or small church site, was recorded by the scholar Ó Ríordáin in 1934. Such cillíní and early Christian burial grounds are scattered across Munster, many of them associated with pre-Norman church foundations that left little structural trace above ground. The place-name Kilpatrick itself contains the element "cill", pointing to an early church dedication, in this case to Saint Patrick, which lends the wider area a layer of ecclesiastical memory that the buried ground at "Tadg na Reilige" quietly extends. What the connection between the named field and the broader parish history might be is not recorded, but the convergence of a saint's name in the townland and a burial tradition in the field suggests the kind of local sacred geography that persisted in Irish memory long after any physical structure had vanished.

There is nothing to see at this site in any conventional sense. Its interest lies precisely in that absence, in the fact that a field name carried a piece of archaeological knowledge through centuries until someone thought to write it down.
