Tobercolman/Tobar Colmáin: This well is located in poor upland pasture on the S side of Cloon valley. An early ecclesiastical site (KE082-020007-) occurs 650m to W and a bullaun stone is located on the wall of a hut 40m to E (KE082-081----). A paving of slabs is laid in front of the overgrown well, which consists of a spring-fed natural hollow. A legend involving a pink fish is associated with the site (local information).
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. 1060. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
