What is recorded here

In lowlying, average pasture, close to the junction of two field boundaries. This holy well is named ‘Tobernasool’ on the 1838 and 1929 OS 6-inch maps. Patterns were held here in the past, but the well is now no longer visited (Pers. comm. Jim Gilvarry 1888). It consists of a pool (c. 4m E–W; c. 3m N–S; D c. 0.7m) of stagnant water, bordered on the E side by a kerb of stones, with two stone steps giving access to the water. There is a rath (MA022-058----) 290m to ENE. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 2 May 2019
