What is recorded here

Tobercalliagh is a spring well in County Galway, Ireland, hidden inside a field wall breach on the east side of a road. A wooden beam spans the gap and a stone slab covers the water, suggesting ordinary people valued the source enough to protect it from debris and danger. The well has no saintly name or ritual offerings, yet it remains a living local landmark where the land gives water without ceremony.

On the E side of the road in a breach in a field wall. Named 'Tobercalliagh' on the OS 6-inch maps, this spring well (L 1.6m; Wth 1.09m; D 0.58m) is subject to flooding. A stone slab has been place on top of a wooden beam which spans the breach in the field wall and forms a covering for the well. The well is not associated with a saint and no votive offerings were evident. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 18 July 2018
