Annotated 'Tobermaclaney' on the 1837 ed. OSi 6-inch map where it is shown standing within a small square-shaped field 12m SW of Carrick martello tower (DU012-040----). No surface remains visible, now underneath road-siding along the beach (Ó Danachair 1958, 79). Building of a pier associated with the martello tower disturbed the well. An 1830 Ordnance recorded the water of the well ran down the hill to form two small pools beside the tower and then ran into the sea beside the curved stone pier (Bolton et al. 2012, 157).
