What is recorded here

Indicated is a shallow spring beside a rath in County Kerry, marking the kind of clean water that sustained local life long before roads or records. It still flows west into the field, quiet and unchanged, while the old earth work stands nearby like a forgotten witness. People may have drunk from it, washed in it or simply passed it without thought, but the water keeps moving through Kerry soil regardless of whether anyone remembers its name.

On the N side of a rath (KE057-015----). Described in the 1840s as a 'well' close to a 'fort' in Farranmanagh townland (OSNB, Kilcolman, no. 2, 7). A natural spring, defined by a narrow shallow E-W channel, which flows into the adjacent field to the W.
