Not shown on 1842 OS 6-inch map. Circular (diam. 1m) stone-lined well now abandoned and overgrown. According to Bowman (1934, 246), 'called Tober abhile (well of the old tree)...rounds have long since been discontinued. The site of this well is said to have been changed owing to floods from the mountain. The well is now covered in with flagstones. Mr O'Callaghan found a cross-inscribed stone c. 2 feet long by 1ft near the well, about 30 years ago (1905).'
