The OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1928, 3) mention that the well was visited for headache cures. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 December 2008

The well was traditionally visited for headaches, reflecting a common association of holy wells with physical ailments in Irish tradition. No specific saint is linked to the site in available records.
