The souterrain is simply a small hole in the ground. It seems to have a vertical shaft down which is covered by rotting sleepers, which are nearly covered by the grass around it.
The Archaeological Inventory says it has a beehive chamber.

Follow the N51 west from Drogheda for about 4km until you reach the main entrance to Townley Hall (denoted by a picnic area on the right). Park here and follow the track alongside the stream for about 600m until you reach the actual gates of Townley Hall. Just inside these gates there is a white gate on the right. The souterrain is 10m diagonally inside this enclosure. This is private land.
