Unfortunately, there's nothing but a few lumps remaining (I've been there). It is located right along both sides of the N7 highway between Mountrath and the Portlaoise M7 bypass. It's about 2 1/2 miles east of Mountrath town itself. There are only about a dozen houses, but there are some cross-slabs, a holy well and an old graveyard.
