What is recorded here

Situated towards the bottom of a gentle S-facing slope with a WNW-ESE stream to the S, on the early ecclesiastical site known as 'Cíll Eoghan' (Power 1952, 416). The site of Tobar Eóin Well is marked on the 1840 and 1928 eds of the OS 6-inch map as just outside the ecclesiastical enclosure (WA002-040003-) at SW. The well is no longer evident but a pattern was held at it on August 15th until it was supressed in 1825 (Power 1952, 416), and the name is now applied to a natural spring c. 530m to the ESE. Power, P. (1952) The placenames of the Decies. (second ed.) Cork University Press. Compiled by: Michael Moore. Date of upload: 27th August, 2010.
