Located in a coniferous forest at the bottom of a N-facing slope. It is marked only on the 1927 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. This is a natural spring which has eroded a deep channel (Wth c. 1m; max. D c. 5m) into the steep slope, and it is overlooked at S by a deciduous tree with an iron cross embedded in it. A small triangular cairn (WA029-001001-) (dims. 2m x 3m; H 0.9m), perhaps a penitential cairn, is located just to the W of the channel.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
