A roughly oval enclosure, measuring around fifty metres on its longer axis and forty on its shorter, was recorded on the third edition of the Ordnance Survey six-inch map in 1948. Today, no visible surface trace survives. The grass grows over it, the cattle graze across it, and nothing announces that anything was ever there.

Enclosures of this kind are among the most common, and most quietly ambiguous, features in the Irish archaeological landscape. The term covers a wide range of structures, from early medieval ringforts, which were enclosed farmsteads typically defined by an earthen bank and ditch, to earlier prehistoric boundaries whose original purpose is harder to pin down. Without excavation, it is rarely possible to say which type a particular example represents, or indeed whether what the map-makers recorded was already a ghost of something older. The 1948 mapping caught it at some point of partial survival; whatever had defined the oval outline, whether a raised bank, a depression, or a crop or soil mark visible at the time, has since been levelled entirely by agricultural activity or the slow work of weathering.
