The National Monuments Service's description
Toberreendoney/Tobar Rí an Domhnaigh: A spring well (KE044-102----) located in a rock cavity on the E side of the stream which forms the boundary between the townlands of Gortacurraun and Farrannacarriga.
A small cross-inscribed stone KE044-102001- is located in a small crevice a little upstream of the well. Its S face bears a simple Latin cross with T-bar terminals to shaft and arms.
The above description is derived from J. Cuppage, ‘Corca Dhuibhne. Dingle Peninsula archaeological survey. Ballyferriter. Oidhreacht Chorca Dhuibhne’ (1986), no. 939. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
