What is recorded here

On the N bank of a stream in pastureland. Named ‘Toberusta’ on the 1838 edition and 1947-8 revision of the OS 6-inch map. This flooded well (D 0.6 to 0.8m on the day of visit) is delimited along the N side by a semi-circular drystone wall (Wth 0.6m; H 0.8m). On inspection the wall was in poor condition, with dense overgrowth to the E and W. While it has been regarded locally as a holy well, it has not been used as such for many years.
