Indicated

A well is mentioned in a description of 'The United Parishes of Tamplenoe and Duneigore' in the Civil Survey 1654-56 as being 'by the sd brooke running betwixt the halfe colpe of Ballyhosty in this parish and the sixth pt colpe of Garrankanty afforesd to a well called Tobburkissane on pt of the lands of Garrankanty afforesd and from that well to a hill called Knockiteane along by a ditch meareing the same & this parish' (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 41). On the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map there is a well at the NW of Garranacanty townland, on the border with Friarsfield and Drumclieve townlands which may be this well. It is not depicted on the subsequent (1904) edition. The OSi Ortho aerial photograph (2005) indicates that the area of well has been planted with forestry.
