What is recorded here

Located c. 10m E of a meandering stream, in rough grazing. The OS Letters (1839) describe this holy well as, 'Tobar na nGiobog, i.e., the Well of the Rags, from the quantity of rags left there formerly and still by its votaries' (O'Flanagan 1930, vol. 2, 58 (19)). Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 330) also mentions the 'well of the Rags, from the ex-votos of linen and cloth &c. which used formerly to be hung on a tree growing over it'.
