The National Monuments Service's description
In a rath (KE058-040001-). In the 1840s it was recorded that Toberaspagher Fort derives its name from 'a handsome spring well which is in the eastern extremity of it out of which issues a little stream of pure spring' (OSNB, Kilcredane, 15). According to the landowner, there was a well or spring here up to some years ago but there are no visible remains of it.
