On the S bank of the Kilbride River, at the base of the scarp which drops to flood-plain of the river, in rough pasture. The river runs roughly E-W c. 25m to the N. Carrigan (1905, vol. 3, 321) describes this as, 'a fine well, not accounted holy, and known as Tobarnaskeha or Well of the White-thorn tree'. According to local information the well is now gone.
