There was a place called Tobar na Cille, or the Church Well, at Kilronan (Power 1952, 372), which undoubtedly related to the church (WA017-010001-). The well remains unlocated.

Linked to a local church site, the well is associated with early Christian tradition in the area. The name Tobar na Cille suggests a connection to ecclesiastical activity, though specific saints or cures are not recorded.
