It does not announce itself. At less than a metre high and roughly twenty-one metres across its longest axis, it could easily be dismissed as a slight irregularity in the ground, the kind of undulation that farming land accumulates over centuries. Local tradition, however, has long identified it as a burial site, placing it within a broad category of prehistoric funerary monuments scattered across the Irish landscape, where communities interred their dead beneath constructed earthen mounds, sometimes over many generations.

The mound is broadly subcircular in plan and gently domed, with a slightly flattened top that slopes away gradually on all sides. Small to medium-sized stones protrude at random from the grass on the northern half, with a noticeably denser concentration of stones along the northern and north-eastern perimeter, hinting at some kind of structural arrangement beneath the surface. The southern and south-eastern portion is less legible, buried under a dense thicket of blackthorn scrub, though stones are visible scattered across the ground beneath the thorns. Whether the mound conceals a kerb, a cairn core, or burial deposits beneath its grassy exterior has not been established. The monument was brought to wider attention by a local man, Gerry Walsh, whose knowledge of the area made the record possible.
