Marked on the 1938 'OS 6-inch' map as 'Toberdoney'. The OS Letters refer to a well called Tober Domhnaigh at which a station was formerly held (CLAJ 1927, 129). It was also known locally as St. Flannel's Well in the 1930's (Irish Folklore Commission Schools' Manuscripts 668, 381). Located in low marshy ground. It is an irregular-shaped, visible spring, roughly enclosed by a few very small boulders. Some small whitethorns grow on E side and a large ash sapling has fallen from which rosary beads, medals and buttons are hanging. A piece of old railway sleeper beside the well possibly for kneeling on. (ASI field notes, 10 May 1967) Compiled by: Claire Breen Date of upload: 20 June 2012
