What is recorded here

Known as St. Kevin's Well and the supposed location of a stone bearing the mark of the saint's knees (LH017-064002-) (IFC Schools MSS 674, 60). No visible trace at ground level. An archaeological assessment (Excavation Licence 98E584) was carried out immediately to the E but did not reveal anything of archaeological interest (Meenan 1998).

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
