The National Monuments Service's description
In the 1940s an earthen well, whose sides were supported by stone slabs, and which contained 'an old weather-begrimed statue of St Anthony' was described (ITA). The precise location of this well is not known but it is likely to have been in the vicinity of the bullaun stone (KE057-098001-).
