Not marked on the 1840 or 1906 eds OS 6-inch maps. Reference to a causey well south west of churchyard. (Carrigan 1905, vol. 2, 239). No visible surface remains. Described by carrigan as 'There was, till lately, a well near the churchyard, to the south-west, called "Causey [ie.., Causeway] well". In the adjoining field to the NW of the priory there is a modern well surround that may have enclosed an earlier well.
