Situated on a severe E-facing slope overlooking Whiting Bay and at the side of a steep street. It is known as ‘St Uchta’s or St Ita’s Well’ which was formerly venerated (OS Name Books). The well opens-out under rock outcrop as a recess (Wth 0.65m; H 0.5m; D 0.8) defined by a masonry wall. It is still maintained but there is no pattern.
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.
