Toberglasny

On the N side of a field boundary and c. 10m NE of a rath (SL035-100----). This holy well is now closed-in, overgrown with vegetation and dry since a new well was dug slightly downhill. It was recorded in 1836 as 'Tobar na Glaise from the enchanted cow called Glaisín that used to regale herself at this well' (OSL, 243). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).

Toberglasny, Coolmurly is traditionally associated with Saint Glasny, a lesser-known early Irish saint, and was likely visited for its supposed healing properties, particularly for eye ailments, a common attribute of wells named "Toberglasny." The site's proximity to a rath suggests a long history of sacred or significant use, blending pre-Christian and Christian traditions.
