What is recorded here

According to O Coindealbháin (1946, 161) 'the well has a very small flow of water now. There is a well-kept shrine containing a statue of the B.V.M. by the side of the well. It is not frequented on a holy well nowadays'. Shrine restored in 1981; no visible surface trace of well. See Excavations 2000, no. 127, p.44 The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 2: East and South Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1994). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
