The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Linked to a medieval chapel and holy well, Westertown is associated with local Christian traditions, though the specific saint or cure connected to the site is not recorded. The presence of a cinerary urn suggests earlier pre-Christian ritual activity, indicating a long history of spiritual or ceremonial use.
