As of 2016 it is maintained by St John's Parish, Carraroe, Sligo. Masses are conducted at the site. The devoted from surrounding counties and elsewhere make pilgrimmages to the site on Garland Sunday when a day-long schedule of devotions is held.
It is associated with St. Patrick whose fingerprints are said to be in the stones of one of the altars.
