Situated in a hollow on an E-facing slope. Natural spring housed in a rectangular drystone surround (dims. 0.95m E-W; 0.7m N-S). There is a small modern shrine with a statue of Our Lady to the W of the well; the hollow is planted with flowers and a glass left at the well attests to its continued use. The spring runs out of the well into a stream immediately to the W. According to Price (1946, 66), a pattern was held here on the 15th of August.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
