On the roadside immediately NW of a castle (GA068-006001-). This well, correctly Tobar na gCoinín, consists of a natural spring delimited by a drystone wall and roofed over by limestone lintels. Though not designated as an antiquity on OS 6-inch maps, it is recognised locally as a holy well (Topgr. Files, UCG).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Galway Vol. I - West Galway'. Compiled by Paul Gosling (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993).
