What is recorded here

Some 50m SW of a castle (GA115-028----), on marshy ground. On inspection this natural spring well was covered with stones and overgrown with briars. While there is no known local tradition of veneration here, it is marked on the 1838 and 1920 editions of the OS 6-inch maps, and named ‘Toberemon’ in Gothic script suggesting that it is possibly a holy well.

Toberemon is a holy well traditionally associated with Saint Emon, a 7th-century Irish saint known for his ascetic practices and reputed healing powers. The name "Toberemon" derives from "Tobar Mháthair Eimhin," meaning "Well of Saint Emon's Mother," reflecting a local tradition of pilgrimage and healing associated with the saint.
