The National Monuments Service's description
In 1836 a well named 'Tobar Chollum (Cille)' was recorded at Drumcolumb church (SL027-141001-) (OSL, 254). There are now no visible remains of this well. A well named 'St. Columb's Well' (SL034-034----) lies 650m to SW of the church.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
