Locally it carries the Irish name Cruchaun na Curra, meaning Hill of the Plain, a name that quietly acknowledges the way the mound asserts itself against the surrounding level ground. On and around it sit the remains of a circular enclosure, roughly fourteen metres in diameter, surviving in fair condition and defined partly by an earthen bank and partly by a scarp, a slope cut or worn into the ground surface to form a boundary. Beyond the western arc of the enclosure, an external fosse, essentially a ditch dug to reinforce the perimeter, is still visible. A gap in the northeast may be where the original entrance once stood.

What gives the site an added layer of interest is the smaller structure discovered within. Inside the circular enclosure lies a rectangular feature, approximately three and a half metres east to west and one and a half metres north to south, defined by a bank of stone now grassed over. Enclosures of this general type are found across Ireland, and while they are often associated with early medieval settlement or agricultural organisation, the presence of a secondary internal structure raises questions that the site itself cannot yet answer. Whether the inner feature served a domestic, storage, or ritual purpose is not recorded. The relationship between the outer ring and this inner rectangle, one following the curve of the hillock, the other rigidly rectilinear, gives Cruchaun na Curra a quiet complexity that the flatness of the surrounding plain does little to hint at from a distance.
