In 1942-4 a holy well named 'Tober-na-neeve or the Well of the Saints' was recorded in Carrowntemple to which pilgrimages were formerly made on August 15th (ITA). The exact location of this well is not known. This is probably the same holy well as that in Kilfree townland (SL044-047001-) c. 2.5km to NE which is also known as 'Tobar na Naomh' and had its patron day on 15th August (pers. comm. M. A. Timoney).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
