On gentle SW-facing slope, close to road and adjacent to field fence. Natural ledge (0.9m X 0.4m) onto which water flows (now directed via pipe) from higher ground to NE. Some water collects in slight hollow on ledge, to a depth of 0.05m. According to information collected by Fr O'Donoghue in 1917, well was associated with Augeris church and graveyard (CO069-03802-; CO069-03801-) c. 300m to SW; rounds were made at well after visiting church (pers. comm. M. Uí Léime).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 3: Mid Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
