What is recorded here

According to OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1927, Vol. 1, 240), 'It is said in the country that there is a well called Tobar na Slainte, the well of health, Fons Salutis, at Killosolan village, but when I went there I could get no one to point out a well of the name'. Not located. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. II - North Galway'. Compiled by Olive Alcock, Kathy de hÓra and Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). Date of upload: 05 August 2010

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
