Irish ones are usualy discovered these days when a tractor wheel disappears into one. They don't seem to have been filled in when they went out of disuse. Many I've been to see have been filled in in living memory to stop cattle falling into them. Quite sad really, when a good fence would have sufficed.
The 'ritual' abandonment of Scottish ones is rather odd and interested.
