There is now no apparent trace of this holy well which was locally known as Tobar na bPaidreacha. It was located on an E facing slope, c. 75m NW of a ceallúnach burial ground (KE097-003----), and was apparently covered by a flat slab. A stone which stood beside it bore 'markings' and 'writing' (local information). The well was filled in the 1930s and the present whereabouts of the upright stone is unknown.
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. 1076. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
