According to local information, last visit to well was made in late 1940s/early 1950s when rounds were paid during month of June. Visited by Grove White (1905-25, vol. 3, 77) in July 1905 who noted it had been choked up and trampled over by cattle and was in 'a very neglected state'. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
