In pasture, in a thicket of hawthorn and brambles, located at the base of natural rock outcropping on a N-facing slope. This well is named ‘Tobercashleen’ on the 1838 and 1929 OS 6-inch maps. It is mentioned in the 1838 OS Letters, but is not described as a holy well: '..there is a well in Mullafarry called Tobar Caislín (Tobarcashleen).' (O’Flanagan 1927, 176-7 (93-4)). A spring emerging from two small clefts at the base of a rock face. The water merges into a small stream that flows to W for a few meters, before changing course downslope to N.
