In the garden of a dwelling house, to the N of the Killarney-Killorglin road (N72). The well, which is named 'Toberacreen' on the OS 6-inch map, is not visible at ground level. According to local information, it has been gone for many years. A cliff-edge fort (KE057-060001-) is c. 25m to the SW, on the opposite side of the road.
