Situated in a natural hollow with a steep downhill slope (to the Avoca river) immediately to the W of the site. No visible trace of the church site mentioned by Price (1967, 467), said to have been founded here by Palladius. A holy well (Tobernacla, WI035-030002-), which is marked on both editions of the OS 6-inch map is located in nearby rock outcrop.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
