Toberykeel/Tobar Uí Chaoil: This heavily overgrown, stone-lined spring well is located a short distance W of Glenbeigh village. Traces of a small wall-surround survive. The well is dedicated to St Gregory, the patron of the parish, whose feast day, the 12th of March, was formerly celebrated here (OSL). Rounds were also formerly made at the well on Saturday evenings and Sunday mornings (OSNB Glanbeagh, 21).
The above description is derived from A. O'Sullivan and J. Sheehan (compilers), 'The Iveragh peninsula: an archaeological survey of South Kerry'. Cork University Press (1996), no. 1063. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
