The National Monuments Service's description
On the bend of the Clodiagh River on flat pasture with good views in all directions. The bend in the river is now detached from the modern course of the Clodiagh River which has been straightened. There are no visible remains of the eel weir mentioned in the Civil Survey (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 76). The detached river bend is overgrown and now appears as a natural pond or marshy area in field to the E of the river.
