Situated on a SW-facing slope, c. 15m SE of the graveyard (WA018-023003-). The well was described by J. O'Donovan c. 1840 as covered and it had a pointed doorway at S. Patterns were held there on the 24th of June until c. 1800 (O'Flanagan 1929, 5). It is now a pool (diam. c. 3m), with evidence of a grass-covered stoney perimeter W-E. There are also two stones with chamfered edges, while a third is from the curved arch of a doorway, cofirming O'Donovan's description. The tower house (WA018-023002-) is c. 50m to the S.
O'Flanagan, M. (Compiler) (1929) Letters containing information relative to the antiquities of the county of Waterford collected during the progress of the Ordnance Survey in 1841. Typescript. Bray.
