What is recorded here

Tobernoone is a holy well in Estersnow, County Roscommon, Ireland. The vanished water source stood on the southern bank of a small stream within the ecclesiastical enclosure, just west of an underground stone passage. John O'Donovan recorded local veneration of the site during the 1830s Ordnance Survey, preserving evidence that the well existed before disappearing from the landscape.

Tobernoone well was venerated in the 1830s according to John O'Donovan (O'Flanagan 1931), but it does not survive. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010

Tobernoone well was venerated in association with Saint Bono, a 7th-century Irish saint known for his ascetic practices and healing miracles. The well was traditionally visited for its supposed curative properties, particularly for skin ailments and general well-being.
