What is recorded here

Located towards the bottom of an E-facing slope. It was known as Tobar Rí and Domhnaigh - Sundays well, according to John O' Donovan but it was no longer venerated c. 1840 (O'Flanagan 1933, 242). Its location is marked by a whitethorn tree, but soil creep is obscuring it.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record WX004-004
