Marked on the 1837 and 1914 eds of the OS 6-inch map and describe as 'Toberpatrick' on both. Situated on a level landscape. This is a rectangular well (dims 0.9m E-W; 0.6m N-S; D 0.2m) which is now choked with vegetation within a rectangular enclosure (RO023-097003-) (ext. dims 10.6m E-W; 5.4m N-S) defined by masonry walls (Wth 0.55m; H 1m) which has a gateway (Wth 1.4m) at E. There is a rectangular limestone trough (RO023-097002-) (dims 1.3m x 0.5m; H 0.3m; D 0.2m) nearby, but there is no evidence of veneration at the well. The possible rath (RO023-096----) is c. 130m to the SW.
