No visible surface trace; pump now in its place. Baltimore Castle (CO150-036002-) lies short distance to NE. According to O'Donoghue (1986, 32), in early 17th century Sir Fineen O'Driscoll is supposed to have thrown fistfuls of silver coins into well to amuse and enrich some English sailors.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
