What is recorded here

Poorly preserved disused well located in a quarry with refuse submerged in well. According to local information the well is locally associated with Lynally church (OF016-031----) and it is believed locally that a cross was lit on top of this hill to guide boats along the river to Lynally church hence the name Ardnagross. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 May 2011
