What is recorded here

Marked as St. Catherine's Well on the 1840 and 1927 eds of the OS 6-inch map, and situated c. 70m NW of the Augustinian priory (WA031-040005-). It was also known as Toberacaut (Fitzgerald 1913-16, 367), but Power (1952, 113) doubted if it was a holy well. It is not visible at ground level. FitzGerald, W. (1913-16) Dungarvan: the Augustinian abbey burial ground. Mems Dead, 9, 365-7. Power, Rev. P. (1952) The placenames of the Decies. (second ed.) Cork University Press. Compiled by: Michael Moore.
