What is recorded here

In an area of outcropping rock, c. 100m to the W of Kilcommock Church (LF022-032----). In 1837 O’Donovan recorded that 'The holy well of the parish is called Cloghree, which is 'the stone of the king' in English' (OSL, 79). Described in 1976 (SMR file) as a natural unenclosed spring, issuing from under a natural outcropping rock, which flowed to the SW to form a small stream. The well is now fenced off and no votive offerings are visible. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 7 June 2013
