Marked but not named on 1842 OS 6-inch map; named on OS 1905 and 1935 maps. Well is at base of rock outcrop, with stream flowing in at S side and out at N side; very overgrown. Locally remembered that rounds were paid here and stone marked with sign of the cross. According to Byrne (1902, 88), Nicholas was brother to St Branait (13975) and St Cranith (13986). Well dedicated to St Cranith (14009) stood in walled garden of house (The Glen) c. 1 mile to NW; according to legend, it was moved to this location (and presumably renamed) when travelling man was insulted by woman of the house.
