Holy well known locally as St James' Well (Ó Danachair 1958, 75) stands in a field 45m S of Palmerstown church (DU007-013001-) and graveyard (DU007-013003-). It is a dry circular pool about 3m in diameter and 1m in depth encircled by thorn bushes and ash tree (Skyvova 2005, 60). Located in cereal crop field south of curved road, some field boundary curving and undulations in the field may imply outer enclosure of church (DU007-013001-) and graveyard (DU007-013003-), if that is the case then the holy well is located between middle and outer enclosure.
