Located at the bottom of a NE-facing slope and c. 30m from the W bank of a NW-SE stream. It is described as St Mogue's Well on the 1840 and 1924 eds of the OS 6-inch map, and is now located under the Ferns to Gorey road (N11). It was enclosed in 1847 when a stone head from Clone church (WX015-023001-) was incorporated into the masonry superstructure (O'Broin 1983-4, 33-4). It is now inaccessible, but steps lead down from the road to a lintelled passage (L 1.05m; Wth 0.62m; H 1.2m) that leads to a higher barrel-vaulted passage (L 1.65m; Wth 1.05m) with the well, a circular, stone-lined pool (diam. c. 0.65m) at the end. A channel from the well now leads to an open well c. 25m to the NE.
