Situated at the entrance of the Skerries Mill complex. Site formerly a hockey pitch that was always subject to flooding-allowed to return to a pond and is currently a bird sanctuary. The well is located to the north west corner of the pond but is completely inaccessible. Marked by a dead tree. This is an enclosed spring well. Access down steps. The name 'kibe', according to the Placenames Commission, means 'chillblain' in Middle English, suggesting that this well may have had curative powers and be of medieval origin (Pers comm. Donal Mc Giolla Easpaig).
