Recent human activity has severely damaged Infirmary Mound; farming has left the Mound low and severely eroded. [1] The Mound now resides in Infirmary Mound Park, a 316-acre park south of Granville and part of the Licking County Park District. [2]

The Mound is difficult to discern from the surrounding terrain, appearing as a small rise near Ramp Creek and stands only 2-3 feet on average and is about 70 feet in diameter. [3]
