The precise location of a curative well in the townland of Kilgobbin known as the 'Eye Well' has not been identified. In 1837 the Ordnance Survey recorded the following details about this well; 'Close to Kilgobban old church [DU025-016001-) there was a holy well called "The eye well" (the Tobernasool of other churches), but a drain sunk in its neighbourhood removed its spring or rather caused it to disappear. This cannot be shewn on the Maps (Herity 2001, 5).
