What is recorded here

Located on the SW edge of Westport town. This road-side, spring well is named ‘Toberavower’ on the OS 6-inch maps. It is enclosed by a cement-bonded stone structure (1.3m by 0.8m), open to the W, with a lean-to roof, dating to the modern era. There are no known local traditions associating it with a saint or ritual activities. Its status as a holy well is uncertain. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 7 October 2020
